[USN-54-1] TIFF library tool vulnerability

 ===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-54-1            January 06, 2005
tiff vulnerability
CAN-2004-1183
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

The following packages are affected:

libtiff-tools

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 3.6.1-1.1ubuntu1.2.  In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Dmitry V. Levin discovered a buffer overflow in the "tiffdump"
utility. If an attacker tricked a user into processing a malicious
TIFF image with tiffdump, they could cause a buffer overflow which at
least causes the program to crash. However, it is not entirely clear
whether this can be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user opening the image.
