SB2022111160 - openEuler 22.03 LTS update for libtiff

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0562)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the memcpy() function within TIFFReadDirectory() in tif_dirread.c. A remote attacker can trick victim to open specially crafted TIFF file and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0561)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the memcpy() function within TIFFFetchStripThing() in tif_dirread.c. A remote attacker can trick victim to open specially crafted TIFF file and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22844)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the _TIFFmemcpy() function in tif_unix.c in certain situations involving a custom tag and 0x0200 as the second word of the DE field. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file and perform a denial of service attack.

4) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0891)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF file in ExtractImageSection() function in tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted TIFF file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
