This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - libtiff: Heap-based buffer overflow in TIFF2PDF tool (CVE-2020-35524)

  - libtiff: heap-buffer overflow via extractContigSamplesBytes() at /libtiff/tools/tiffcrop.c     (CVE-2023-25434)

  - tools/pal2rgb.c in pal2rgb in LibTIFF 4.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (TIFFSetupStrips heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a crafted TIFF file. (CVE-2017-17095)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2023:2340 advisory.

    The libtiff packages contain a library of functions for manipulating Tagged Image File Format (TIFF)     files.

    Security Fix(es):

    * libtiff: heap Buffer overflows in tiffcrop.c (CVE-2022-3570)

    * libtiff: out-of-bounds write in _TIFFmemcpy in libtiff/tif_unix (CVE-2022-3597)

    * libtiff: out-of-bounds read in writeSingleSection in tools/tiffcrop.c (CVE-2022-3599)

    * libtiff: out-of-bounds write in _TIFFmemset in libtiff/tif_unix.c (CVE-2022-3626)

    * libtiff: out-of-bounds write in _TIFFmemcpy in libtiff/tif_unix.c (CVE-2022-3627)

    * libtiff: integer overflow in function TIFFReadRGBATileExt of the file (CVE-2022-3970)

    * libtiff: out-of-bounds read in tiffcp in tools/tiffcp.c (CVE-2022-4645)

    * libtiff: heap buffer overflow issues related to TIFFTAG_INKNAMES and related TIFFTAG_NUMBEROFINKS value     (CVE-2023-30774)

    * libtiff: Heap buffer overflow in extractContigSamples32bits, tiffcrop.c (CVE-2023-30775)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-230 advisory.

  - LibTIFF 4.4.0 has an out-of-bounds read in tiffcp in tools/tiffcp.c:948, allowing 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 e8131125. (CVE-2022-4645)

  - LibTIFF 4.4.0 has an out-of-bounds write in tiffcrop in tools/tiffcrop.c:3502, allowing 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 33aee127. (CVE-2023-0800)

  - LibTIFF 4.4.0 has an out-of-bounds write in tiffcrop in tools/tiffcrop.c:3609, allowing 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 33aee127. (CVE-2023-0804)

  - A vulnerability was found in the libtiff library. This flaw causes a heap buffer overflow issue via the     TIFFTAG_INKNAMES and TIFFTAG_NUMBEROFINKS values. (CVE-2023-30774)

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