OESA-2023-1402 (CVE-2023-25433)

Vulnerability from osv_openeuler – Published: 2023-07-08 11:05 – Updated: 2026-08-06 11:05 – Source website

Summary

libtiff security update

Details

This libtiff provides support for the Tag Image File Format (TIFF), a widely used format for storing image data. The latest version of the TIFF specification is available on-line in several different formats.And contains command-line programs for manipulating TIFF format image files using the libtiff library.

Security Fix(es):

libtiff 4.5.0 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow via /libtiff/tools/tiffcrop.c:8499. Incorrect updating of buffer size after rotateImage() in tiffcrop cause heap-buffer-overflow and SEGV.(CVE-2023-25433)

libtiff 4.5.0 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow in uv_encode() when libtiff reads a corrupted little-endian TIFF file and specifies the output to be big-endian.(CVE-2023-26966)

A null pointer dereference issue was discovered in Libtiff's tif_dir.c file. This flaw allows an attacker to pass a crafted TIFF image file to the tiffcp utility, which triggers runtime error, causing an undefined behavior, resulting in an application crash, eventually leading to a denial of service.(CVE-2023-2908)

Severity

5.5 (Medium)

CVE-2023-2908 (GCVE-0-2023-2908)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2023-06-30 00:00 – Updated: 2025-11-03 20:35

Title

Libtiff: null pointer dereference in tif_dir.c

Summary

A null pointer dereference issue was found in Libtiff's tif_dir.c file. This issue may allow an attacker to pass a crafted TIFF image file to the tiffcp utility which triggers a runtime error that causes undefined behavior. This will result in an application crash, eventually leading to a denial of service.

Severity

5.5 (Medium)

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
