Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. A heap out of bounds read vulnerability exists in the handling of IPTC data while parsing TIFF images. A specially-crafted TIFF file can cause a read of adjacent heap memory, which can leak sensitive process information. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability.
