Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream compat-libtiff3 package and not the compat-libtiff3 package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

LibTIFF 4.4.0 has an out-of-bounds write in tiffcrop in libtiff/tif_unix.c:368, invoked by tools/tiffcrop.c:2903 and tools/tiffcrop.c:6778, allowing attackers to cause a denial-of-service via a crafted tiff file. For users that compile libtiff from sources, the fix is available with commit 33aee127.
