Description
A buffer read overflow has been discovered in libtiff. The function TIFFFetchNormalTag() in libtiff/tif_dirread.c did not make sure that values of tags with TIFF_SETGET_C16_ASCII / TIFF_SETGET_C32_ASCII access are null terminated leading to potential read outside the buffer in _TIFFPrintField().
