Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5333 advisory.

Several buffer overflow, divide by zero or out of bounds read/write vulnerabilities were discovered in tiff, the Tag Image File Format (TIFF) library and tools, which may cause denial of service when processing a crafted TIFF image. For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 4.2.0-1+deb11u3. We recommend that you upgrade your tiff packages. For the detailed security status of tiff please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security- tracker.debian.org/tracker/tiff

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Solution

Upgrade the tiff packages.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 4.2.0-1+deb11u3.
