How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 libtiff-devel.

NVD Description

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

In LibTIFF 4.0.7, the program processes BMP images without verifying that biWidth and biHeight in the bitmap-information header match the actual input, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read in bmp2tiff.
