Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions

Description
The issue is related to the TIFFReadDirEntryArray function in tif read.c, which mishandles memory allocation for short files.

Recommendations
For LibTIFF version 4.0.8, consider updating to a newer version that addresses this issue, as the current version mishandles memory allocation, leading to potential crashes. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
