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.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the t2p_process_jpeg_strip function in tiff2pdf in libtiff 4.0.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image file.
