NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libtiff-static package and not the libtiff-static package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

LibTIFF 4.0.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted TIFF image, as demonstrated by failure of tif_next.c to verify that the BitsPerSample value is 2, and the t2p_sample_lab_signed_to_unsigned function in tiff2pdf.c.
