A vulnerability was found in the libtiff library. This security flaw causes a heap buffer overflow in extractContigSamples32bits, tiffcrop.c.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - libtiff: Heap-based buffer overflow in TIFF2PDF tool (CVE-2020-35524)

  - libtiff: heap-buffer overflow via extractContigSamplesBytes() at /libtiff/tools/tiffcrop.c     (CVE-2023-25434)

  - tools/pal2rgb.c in pal2rgb in LibTIFF 4.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (TIFFSetupStrips heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a crafted TIFF file. (CVE-2017-17095)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-634 advisory.

    2024-06-06: CVE-2022-48281 was added to this advisory.

    2024-06-06: CVE-2023-41175 was added to this advisory.

    2024-06-06: CVE-2023-30775 was added to this advisory.

    2024-06-06: CVE-2022-3598 was added to this advisory.

    Multiple heap buffer overflows in tiffcrop.c utility in libtiff library Version 4.4.0 allows attacker to     trigger unsafe or out of bounds memory access via crafted TIFF image file which could result into     application crash, potential information disclosure or any other context-dependent impact (CVE-2022-3570)

    LibTIFF 4.4.0 has an out-of-bounds write in extractContigSamplesShifted24bits in tools/tiffcrop.c:3604,     allowing attackers to cause a denial-of-service via a crafted tiff file. For users that compile libtiff     from sources, the fix is available with commit cfbb883b. (CVE-2022-3598)

    processCropSelections in tools/tiffcrop.c in LibTIFF through 4.5.0 has a heap-based buffer overflow (e.g.,     WRITE of size 307203) via a crafted TIFF image. (CVE-2022-48281)

    A vulnerability was found in libtiff library. This security flaw causes a heap buffer overflow in     extractContigSamples32bits, tiffcrop.c (CVE-2023-30775)

    Multiple potential integer overflow in tiffcp.c in libtiff <= 4.5.1 can allow remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute an arbitrary code via a crafted tiff image which     triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2023-40745)

    Multiple potential integer overflow in raw2tiff.c in libtiff <= 4.5.1 can allow remote attackers to cause     a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute an arbitrary code via a crafted tiff image     which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2023-41175)
