Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 3 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2022-3627:
An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the _TIFFmemcpy function in libtiff/tif_unix.c in the libtiff package. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted TIFF image file, a remote attacker could cause a denial of service condition.
