How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 tiff to version 4.0.3-12.3+deb8u2 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.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the _TIFFVGetField function in libtiff 4.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to crash the application via a crafted tiff.
