    Package : tiff
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem type : local
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2012-5581
    Debian Bug : 694693

    The tiff library for handling TIFF image files contained a stack-based
    buffer overflow, potentially allowing attackers who can submit such
    files to a vulnerable system to execute arbitrary code.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 3.9.4-5+squeeze8.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
    (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 4.0.2-1 of the tiff
    package, and version 3.9.6-10 of the tiff3 package.

    We recommend that you upgrade your tiff packages.
