(CVE-2016-3945)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the horizontalDifference8 function in tif_pixarlog.c in LibTIFF 4.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image to tiffcp. (CVE-2016-3990)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the loadImage function in the tiffcrop tool in LibTIFF 4.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image with zero tiles. (CVE-2016-3991)

This update for tiff fixes the following issues:

The following security vulnerabilities were addressed:

• CVE-2015-8668: Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow in the PackBitsPreEncode function in tif_packbits.c in bmp2tiff, which allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a large width field in a specially crafted BMP image. (bsc#960589)
• CVE-2018-10779: Fixed a heap-based buffer over-read in TIFFWriteScanline() in tif_write.c (bsc#1092480)
• CVE-2017-17942: Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow in the function PackBitsEncode in tif_packbits.c. (bsc#1074186)
• CVE-2016-5319: Fixed a beap-based buffer overflow in bmp2tiff (bsc#983440)

This update for tiff fixes the following issues:

• CVE-2023-41175: Fixed potential integer overflow in raw2tiff.c (bsc#1214686).
• CVE-2023-38288: Fixed potential integer overflow in raw2tiff.c (bsc#1213590).
• CVE-2023-40745: Fixed integer overflow in tiffcp.c (bsc#1214687).
• CVE-2015-8668: Fixed Heap-based buffer overflow in bmp2tiff / PackBitsEncode (bsc#960589).

It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain malformed images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, a remote attacker could crash the application, leading to a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code with user privileges.
