Detail
| "infamous41md" discovered a problem in libtiff, the Tag Image File Format library for processing TIFF graphics files. Upon reading a TIFF file it is possible to allocate a zero sized buffer and write to it which would lead to the execution of arbitrary code. For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 3.5.5-6woody2. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.1-4. We recommend that you upgrade your libtiff packages immediately. |

| Title: | libtiff Directory Entry Count Integer Overflow Vulnerability | ||
| Description: | Integer overflow in (1) tif_dirread.c and (2) tif_fax3.c for libtiff 3.5.7 and 3.7.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a TIFF file containing a TIFF_ASCII or TIFF_UNDEFINED directory entry with a -1 entry count, which leads to a heap-based buffer overflow. | ||

|---|---|
| 12555 | LibTIFF Directory Entry Count Remote Overflow A local overflow exists in LibTIFF. The tdir_count variable is not validated before being passed to CheckMalloc() resulting in a heap overflow. With a specially crafted request, a malicious user can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity. |
