The version of libtiff installed on the remote host is prior to 4.0.3-35. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2022-1780 advisory.

  - Integer overflow in the writeBufferToSeparateStrips function in tiffcrop.c in LibTIFF before 4.0.7 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted tif file. (CVE-2016-9532)

  - A flaw was found in libtiff. Due to a memory allocation failure in tif_read.c, a crafted TIFF file can     lead to an abort, resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2020-35521)

  - In LibTIFF, there is a memory malloc failure in tif_pixarlog.c. A crafted TIFF document can lead to an     abort, resulting in a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2020-35522)

  - An integer overflow flaw was found in libtiff that exists in the tif_getimage.c file. This flaw allows an     attacker to inject and execute arbitrary code when a user opens a crafted TIFF file. The highest threat     from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-35523)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in libtiff in the handling of TIFF images in libtiff's     TIFF2PDF tool. A specially crafted TIFF file can lead to arbitrary code execution. The highest threat from     this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-35524)

  - Null source pointer passed as an argument to memcpy() function within TIFFFetchStripThing() in     tif_dirread.c in libtiff versions from 3.9.0 to 4.3.0 could lead to Denial of Service via crafted TIFF     file. For users that compile libtiff from sources, the fix is available with commit eecb0712.
    (CVE-2022-0561)

  - Reachable Assertion in tiffcp in libtiff 4.3.0 allows 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 5e180045.
    (CVE-2022-0865)

  - Unchecked Return Value to NULL Pointer Dereference in tiffcrop in libtiff 4.3.0 allows 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 f2b656e2. (CVE-2022-0907)

  - Null source pointer passed as an argument to memcpy() function within TIFFFetchNormalTag () in     tif_dirread.c in libtiff versions up to 4.3.0 could lead to Denial of Service via crafted TIFF file.
    (CVE-2022-0908)

  - Divide By Zero error in tiffcrop in libtiff 4.3.0 allows 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 f8d0f9aa.
    (CVE-2022-0909)

  - Out-of-bounds Read error in tiffcp in libtiff 4.3.0 allows 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 408976c4.
    (CVE-2022-0924)

  - LibTIFF 4.3.0 has an out-of-bounds read in _TIFFmemcpy in tif_unix.c in certain situations involving a     custom tag and 0x0200 as the second word of the DE field. (CVE-2022-22844)
