CVE-2006-2656 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:8 tiff to version 3.8.2-3 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 tiffsplit command in libtiff 3.8.2 and earlier might might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename. NOTE: tiffsplit is not setuid. If there is not a common scenario under which tiffsplit is called with attacker-controlled command line arguments, then perhaps this issue should not be included in CVE.
