NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream compat-libtiff3 package and not the compat-libtiff3 package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Multiple integer overflows in the (1) cvt_by_strip and (2) cvt_by_tile functions in the tiff2rgba tool in LibTIFF 4.0.6 and earlier, when -b mode is enabled, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.
