Upgrade Debian:8 tiff to version 4.0.2-5 or higher.
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:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
ppm2tiff does not check the return value of the TIFFScanlineSize function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PPM image that triggers an integer overflow, a zero-memory allocation, and a heap-based buffer overflow.
