Package: libtiff4
Version: 3.7.2-3sarge1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole



As far as I could see, this is not fixed in sarge:

Name: CVE-2006-2120
URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-2120
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1065

The TIFFToRGB function in libtiff before 3.8.1 allows remote attackers
to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted TIFF image with
Yr/Yg/Yb values that exceed the YCR/YCG/YCB values, which triggers an
out-of-bounds read.


The function name is actually TIFFXYZToRGB. I am sorry that I am too
late for DSA 1054.

Cheers,
Stefan
