This update for tiff fixes the following issues :

  - CVE-2017-9935: There was a heap-based buffer overflow in     the t2p_write_pdf function in tools/tiff2pdf.c. This     heap overflow could lead to different damages. For     example, a crafted TIFF document can lead to an     out-of-bounds read in TIFFCleanup, an invalid free in     TIFFClose or t2p_free, memory corruption in     t2p_readwrite_pdf_image, or a double free in t2p_free.
    Given these possibilities, it probably could cause     arbitrary code execution (bsc#1046077)

  - CVE-2017-17973: There is a heap-based use-after-free in     the t2p_writeproc function in tiff2pdf.c. (bsc#1074318)

  - CVE-2018-5784: There is an uncontrolled resource     consumption in the TIFFSetDirectory function of     tif_dir.c. Remote attackers could leverage this     vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted     tif file. This occurs because the declared number of     directory entries is not validated against the actual     number of directory entries (bsc#1081690)

This update for tiff fixes the following issues :

  - CVE-2016-9453: The t2p_readwrite_pdf_image_tile function     allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds write and crash) or possibly execute     arbitrary code via a JPEG file with a TIFFTAG_JPEGTABLES     of length one (bsc#1011107).

  - CVE-2016-5652: An exploitable heap-based buffer overflow     existed in the handling of TIFF images in the TIFF2PDF     tool. A crafted TIFF document can lead to a heap-based     buffer overflow resulting in remote code execution.
    Vulnerability can be triggered via a saved TIFF file     delivered by other means (bsc#1007280).

  - CVE-2017-11335: There is a heap-based buffer overflow in     tools/tiff2pdf.c via a PlanarConfig=Contig image, which     caused a more than one hundred bytes out-of-bounds write     (related to the ZIPDecode function in tif_zip.c). A     crafted input may lead to a remote denial of service     attack or an arbitrary code execution attack     (bsc#1048937).

  - CVE-2016-9536: tools/tiff2pdf.c had an out-of-bounds     write vulnerabilities in heap allocated buffers in     t2p_process_jpeg_strip(). Reported as MSVR 35098, aka     't2p_process_jpeg_strip heap-buffer-overflow.'     (bsc#1011845)

  - CVE-2017-9935: In LibTIFF, there was a heap-based buffer     overflow in the t2p_write_pdf function in     tools/tiff2pdf.c. This heap overflow could lead to     different damages. For example, a crafted TIFF document     can lead to an out-of-bounds read in TIFFCleanup, an     invalid free in TIFFClose or t2p_free, memory corruption     in t2p_readwrite_pdf_image, or a double free in     t2p_free. Given these possibilities, it probably could     cause arbitrary code execution (bsc#1046077).

  - CVE-2017-17973: There is a heap-based use-after-free in     the t2p_writeproc function in tiff2pdf.c. (bsc#1074318)

  - CVE-2015-7554: The _TIFFVGetField function in tif_dir.c     allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid     memory write and crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via crafted field data in an extension tag     in a TIFF image (bsc#960341).

  - CVE-2016-5318: Stack-based buffer overflow in the
    _TIFFVGetField function allowed remote attackers to     crash the application via a crafted tiff (bsc#983436).

  - CVE-2016-10095: Stack-based buffer overflow in the
    _TIFFVGetField function in tif_dir.c allowed remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a     crafted TIFF file (bsc#1017690,).

  - CVE-2016-10268: tools/tiffcp.c allowed remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (integer underflow and     heap-based buffer under-read) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted TIFF image,     related to 'READ of size 78490' and     libtiff/tif_unix.c:115:23 (bsc#1031255)

  - An overlapping of memcpy parameters was fixed which     could lead to content corruption (bsc#1017691).

  - Fixed an invalid memory read which could lead to a crash     (bsc#1017692).

  - Fixed a NULL pointer dereference in TIFFReadRawData     (tiffinfo.c) that could crash the decoder (bsc#1017688).
