+ The tiff library contains encoding and decoding routines for the Tag Image + File Format. It is called by numerous programs, including GNOME and KDE, to + help in displaying TIFF images. xv is a multi-format image manipulation + utility that is statically linked to the tiff library. +

+
+ +

+ Chris Evans found heap-based overflows in RLE decoding routines in + tif_next.c, tif_thunder.c and potentially tif_luv.c. +

+
+ +

+ A remote attacker could entice a user to view a carefully crafted TIFF + image file, which would potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code + with the rights of the user viewing the image. This affects any program + that makes use of the tiff library, including GNOME and KDE web browsers or + mail readers. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All tiff library users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge sync + + # emerge -pv ">=media-libs/tiff-3.6.1-r2" + # emerge ">=media-libs/tiff-3.6.1-r2" +

+ xv makes use of the tiff library and needs to be recompiled to receive the + new patched version of the library. All xv users should also upgrade to the + latest version: +

+ + # emerge sync + + # emerge -pv ">=media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r8" + # emerge ">=media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r8" +
