Discussion

LibTiff Tiff Image Header Divide By Zero Denial of Service Vulnerability

LibTIFF is affected by a vulnerability that may cause a denial of service in applications using the library. This issue is due to a failure in the library to sufficiently validate specific header values.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service or a loss of data in applications using the affected library.

This issue is known to affect the CUPS printing system and the Evolution email client; other applications using the LibTIFF library may also be affected.

This issue may be related to BID 12874 - ImageMagick TIFF Image File Unspecified Denial Of Service Vulnerability.
