Ubuntu 4.10 / 5.04 : tiff vulnerability (USN-130-1)

Tavis Ormandy discovered a buffer overflow in the TIFF library. A malicious image with an invalid 'bits per sample' number could be constructed which, when decoded, would have resulted in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process using the library. Since this library is used ...

Ubuntu 4.10 / 5.04 : tiff vulnerability (USN-156-1)

Wouter Hanegraaff discovered that the TIFF library did not sufficiently validate the 'YCbCr subsampling' value in TIFF image headers. Decoding a malicious image with a zero value resulted in an arithmetic exception, which caused the program that uses the TIFF library to crash. This leads to a...
