The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 23.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6644-1 advisory.

It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain files. If a user were tricked into opening a     specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the application to crash,     resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-52356)

It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain image files with the tiffcp utility. If a user     were tricked into opening a specially crafted image file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to     cause tiffcp to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-6228)

It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain files. If a user were tricked into opening a     specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the application to consume     resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-6277)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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