DSA-755-1 tiff Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Frank Warmerdam discovered a stack-based buffer overflow in libtiff, the Tag Image File Format library for processing TIFF graphics files that can lead to the execution of arbitrary code via malformed TIFF files.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 3.7.2-3. We recommend that you upgrade your libtiff packages.
