Description
libtiff 4.5.0 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow via extractContigSamplesBytes() at /libtiff/tools/tiffcrop.c:3215.
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in LibTIFF's tiffcrop utility in the extractContigSamplesBytes() function. This flaw allows an attacker to pass a crafted TIFF image file to the tiffcrop utility, which causes an out-of-bounds read access resulting in an application crash, eventually leading to a denial of service.
