The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200410-11 (tiff: Buffer overflows in image decoding)
Chris Evans found heap-based overflows in RLE decoding routines in tif_next.c, tif_thunder.c and potentially tif_luv.c.
Impact :
A remote attacker could entice a user to view a carefully crafted TIFF image file, which would potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user viewing the image. This affects any program that makes use of the tiff library, including GNOME and KDE web browsers or mail readers.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
