Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Exiv2 version 0.26

Description The issue is related to a reachable assertion in the readHeader function in bigtiffimage.cpp, which can be exploited to cause a remote denial of service attack. This can be achieved by using a crafted TIFF file.

Recommendations For Exiv2 version 0.26, consider avoiding the use of crafted TIFF files until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the processing of TIFF files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
