An update of the libtiff package has been released.

  • In LibTIFF, there is a memory malloc failure in tif_pixarlog.c. A crafted TIFF document can lead to an abort, resulting in a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2020-35522)

  • A flaw was found in libtiff. Due to a memory allocation failure in tif_read.c, a crafted TIFF file can lead to an abort, resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2020-35521)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
