EulerOS 2.0 SP12 : libtiff (EulerOS-SA-2024-2353)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 206934

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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

 A heap-buffer-overflow vulnerability was found in LibTIFF, in extractImageSection() at tools/tiffcrop.c:7916 and tools/tiffcrop.c:7801. This flaw allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted tiff file.(CVE-2023-3164)

 A flaw was found in tiffcrop, a program distributed by the libtiff package. A specially crafted tiff file can lead to an out-of-bounds read in the extractImageSection function in tools/tiffcrop.c, resulting in a denial of service and limited information disclosure. This issue affects libtiff versions 4.x.(CVE-2023-1916)

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

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected libtiff packages.
