<p>
libTIFF provides support for reading and manipulating TIFF (Tag Image
File Format) images.

<description>
<p>
Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team discovered a
stack based buffer overflow in the libTIFF library when reading a TIFF
image with a malformed BitsPerSample tag.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
Successful exploitation would require the victim to open a specially
crafted TIFF image, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All libTIFF users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/tiff-3.7.2"</code>
</resolution>
