CVE-2006-2120  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 tiff to version 3.8.1 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:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The TIFFToRGB function in libtiff before 3.8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted TIFF image with Yr/Yg/Yb values that exceed the YCR/YCG/YCB values, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
