Summary

The libtiff image library (versions before 4.6.0-12) can overflow its memory when processing certain image files, which could cause the program to stop working or allow an attacker to run code. This matters for any system that opens TIFF pictures using this library. Update libtiff to the latest version or apply the vendor's patches to prevent the issue.
