NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tiff package and not the tiff package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 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.
