Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in LibTIFF, the worst of which |
| 19 |
could result in the execution of arbitrary code. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Background |
| 22 |
========== |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
The TIFF library contains encoding and decoding routines for the Tag |
| 25 |
Image File Format. It is called by numerous programs, including GNOME |
| 26 |
and KDE applications, to interpret TIFF images. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Affected packages |
| 29 |
================= |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 32 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |

Description |
| 37 |
=========== |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in LibTIFF. Please review |
| 40 |
the referenced CVE identifiers for details. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Impact |
| 43 |
====== |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
A remote attacker, by enticing the user to process a specially crafted |
| 46 |
TIFF file, could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of |
| 47 |
the process, cause a Denial of Service condition, obtain sensitive |
| 48 |
information, or have other unspecified impacts. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Workaround |
| 51 |
========== |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
Resolution |
| 56 |
========== |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
All LibTIFF users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
# emerge --sync |
| 61 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/tiff-4.0.8" |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools |
| 64 |
such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these |
| 65 |
packages. |
