Description
This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-19131)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the invertImage() function in the tiffcrop component. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application and perform a denial of service attack.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-19144)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing files within the _TIFFmemcpy() funtion in "tif_unix.c". A remote attacker can create a specially crafted image file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1354)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the TIFFReadRawDataStriped() function in tiffinfo.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted TIFF file to the application that is using the affected library, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1355)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within tiffcp.c when processing TIFF files. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted TIFF file to the application that is using the affected library, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
5) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2056)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The
vulnerability exists due to a division by zero error when parsing TIFF
files in tiffcrop. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially
crafted file and crash the affected application.
6) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2057)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a division by zero error when parsing TIFF files in tiffcrop. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file and crash the affected application.7) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2058)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a division by zero error when parsing TIFF files in tiffcrop. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file and crash the affected application.
