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.

tif_read.c in LibTIFF 4.0.7 does not ensure that tif_rawdata is properly initialized, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted image.
