NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libtiff-debugsource package and not the libtiff-debugsource package as distributed by Centos.

A flaw was found in tiffcrop, a program distributed by the libtiff package. A specially crafted tiff file can lead to an out-of-bounds read in the extractImageSection function in tools/tiffcrop.c, resulting in a denial of service and limited information disclosure. This issue affects libtiff versions 4.x.
