EulerOS 2.0 SP9 : libtiff (EulerOS-SA-2023-1474)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 172300

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the libtiff package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- A stack overflow was discovered in the _TIFFVGetField function of Tiffsplit v4.4.0. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted TIFF file parsed by the 'tiffsplit' or 'tiffcrop' utilities. (CVE-2022-34526)

- processCropSelections in tools/tiffcrop.c in LibTIFF through 4.5.0 has a heap-based buffer overflow (e.g., 'WRITE of size 307203') via a crafted TIFF image. (CVE-2022-48281)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected libtiff packages.
