The libtiff packages contain a library of functions for manipulating Tagged
Image File Format (TIFF) files.
A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libtiff processed
certain TIFF files encoded with a 4-bit run-length encoding scheme from
ThunderScan. 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-2011-1167)
This update also fixes the following bug:
All libtiff users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch to resolve these issues. All running applications linked
against libtiff must be restarted for this update to take effect.
