Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-8665)
The vulnerability allows a local non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
tif_getimage.c in LibTIFF 4.0.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via the SamplesPerPixel tag in a TIFF image.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-8683)
The vulnerability allows a local non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The putcontig8bitCIELab function in tif_getimage.c in LibTIFF 4.0.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a packed TIFF image.
3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-35521)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images in tif_read.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted TIFF, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-35522)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images in tif_pixarlog.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted TIFF image, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-35523)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the the tif_getimage.c file in libtiff. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted file to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-35524)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images in libtiff's TIFF2PDF tool. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted TIFF image, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
