NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libtiff package and not the libtiff package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The (1) cpStrips and (2) cpTiles functions in the thumbnail tool in LibTIFF 4.0.6 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via vectors related to the bytecounts[] array variable.
