Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions LibTIFF versions prior to 4.0.2

Description The issue is related to multiple integer overflows in the tiff getimage.c file of LibTIFF, which can be exploited remotely. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary code via a crafted tile size in a TIFF file, resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow. The exploitation of these issues can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.

Recommendations For versions prior to 4.0.2, update to version 4.0.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of LibTIFF until a patch is applied.
