An update of the libtiff package has been released.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - libtiff 4.5.0 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow via extractContigSamplesBytes() at     /libtiff/tools/tiffcrop.c:3215. (CVE-2023-25434)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-255 advisory.
