Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the libtiff package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - A stack buffer overflow flaw was found in Libtiffs' tiffcp.c in main() function. This flaw allows an attacker to pass a crafted TIFF file to the tiffcp tool, triggering a stack buffer overflow issue, possibly corrupting the memory, and causing a crash that leads to a denial of service. (CVE-2022-1355)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
