Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - Ubuntu 8.04 LTS

Summary:

tiff2pdf could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file.

Software Description: - tiff: Tag Image File Format (TIFF) library

Details:

Huzaifa Sidhpurwala discovered that the tiff2pdf utility incorrectly handled certain malformed TIFF images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted TIFF image, a remote attacker could crash the application, leading to a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code with user privileges.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
libtiff-tools 3.9.5-2ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 11.10:
libtiff-tools 3.9.5-1ubuntu1.3

Ubuntu 11.04:
libtiff-tools 3.9.4-5ubuntu6.3

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libtiff-tools 3.9.2-2ubuntu0.10

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
libtiff-tools 3.8.2-7ubuntu3.13

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
