It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this     issue.(CVE-2025-8851)

    A flaw was found in Libtiff. This vulnerability is a 'write-what-where' condition, triggered when the     library processes a specially crafted TIFF image file.

    By providing an abnormally large image height value in the file's metadata, an attacker can trick the     library into writing attacker-controlled color data to an arbitrary memory location. This memory     corruption can be exploited to cause a denial of service (application crash) or to achieve arbitrary code     execution with the permissions of the user.(CVE-2025-9900)

    A vulnerability was found in LibTIFF up to 4.7.0. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this     vulnerability is the function t2p_read_tiff_init of the file tools/tiff2pdf.c of the component fax2ps. The     manipulation leads to null pointer dereference. The attack needs to be approached locally. The complexity     of an attack is rather high. The exploitation appears to be difficult. The patch is named     2ebfffb0e8836bfb1cd7d85c059cd285c59761a4. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this     issue.(CVE-2024-13978)

    A vulnerability was found in LibTIFF up to 4.7.0. It has been rated as critical. This issue affects the     function setrow of the file tools/thumbnail.c.
