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: memory leak in TIFFFdOpen function in tif_unix.c when using pal2rgb (CVE-2019-6128)

  • 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)

  • TIFFWriteScanline in tif_write.c in LibTIFF 3.8.2 has a heap-based buffer over-read, as demonstrated by bmp2tiff. (CVE-2018-10779)

  • TIFFClientOpen in tif_unix.c in LibTIFF 3.8.2 has memory leaks, as demonstrated by bmp2tiff.
    (CVE-2018-10801)

  • newoffsets handling in ChopUpSingleUncompressedStrip in tif_dirread.c in LibTIFF 4.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted TIFF file, as demonstrated by tiff2pdf. This is a different vulnerability than CVE-2018-15209. (CVE-2018-16335)

  • An issue was discovered in LibTIFF 4.0.9. There is a int32 overflow in multiply_ms in tools/ppm2tiff.c, which can cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted image file. (CVE-2018-17100)

  • An issue was discovered in LibTIFF 4.0.9. There are two out-of-bounds writes in cpTags in tools/tiff2bw.c and tools/pal2rgb.c, which can cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted image file. (CVE-2018-17101)

  • In LibTIFF 4.0.9, there is a NULL pointer dereference in the TIFFWriteDirectorySec function in tif_dirwrite.c that will lead to a denial of service attack, as demonstrated by tiffset. (CVE-2018-19210)

  • LibTIFF before 4.0.6 mishandles the reading of TIFF files, as demonstrated by a heap-based buffer over- read in the ReadTIFFImage function in coders/tiff.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.27. (CVE-2018-5360)

  • A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in Libtiffs’ tiffinfo.c in TIFFReadRawDataStriped() function. This flaw allows an attacker to pass a crafted TIFF file to the tiffinfo tool, triggering a heap buffer overflow issue and causing a crash that leads to a denial of service. (CVE-2022-1354)

  • loadImage() in tools/tiffcrop.c in LibTIFF through 4.5.0 has a heap-based use after free via a crafted TIFF image. (CVE-2023-26965)

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