Description
This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2519)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a double free error within the rotateImage() function in tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application, trigger a double free and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.2) Reachable Assertion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2520)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion within the rotateImage() function in tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application, trigger assertion failure and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Release of invalid pointer or reference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2521)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an invalid pointer free operation within the TIFFClose() function in tif_close.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.4) Integer underflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2867)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer underflow within the tiffcrop utility. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the affected application, trigger an integer underflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2868)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the tiffcrop utility. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Integer underflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2869)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer underflow within the extractContigSamples8bits routine in the tiffcrop utility. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the affected application, trigger an integer underflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2953)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the extractImageSection() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.8) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-34526)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the _TIFFVGetField() function in Tiffsplit. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted file to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3570)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in tiffcrop.c utility in libtiff when processing TIFF files. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted file to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
10) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3598)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images within the extractContigSamplesShifted24bits() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF image to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
11) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3599)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the writeSingleSection() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
12) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3626)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images within the _TIFFmemset() function in libtiff/tif_unix.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
13) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3627)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images within the _TIFFmemcpy() function in libtiff/tif_unix.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
