The remote host is missing an update for the 'libtiff' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. The libtiff packages contain a library of functions for manipulating Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) files. Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, were found in the tiff2pdf tool. An attacker could use these flaws to create a specially-crafted TIFF file that would cause tiff2pdf to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code

  libtiff did not properly convert between signed and unsigned integer
  values, leading to a buffer overflow. An attacker could use this flaw to
  create a specially-crafted TIFF file that, when opened, would cause an
  application linked against libtiff to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary
  code. (CVE-2012-2088)

  All libtiff users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain

  against libtiff must be restarted for this update to take effect.");
