Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2011-0191 CVE-2011-0192 CVE-2011-1167

Several vulnearbilities were discovered in the TIFF manipulation and
conversion library:
CVE-2011-0191
A buffer overflow allows to execute arbitrary code or cause
a denial of service via a crafted TIFF image with JPEG encoding.
This issue affects the Debian 5.0 Lenny package only.

A buffer overflow allows to execute arbitrary code or cause
a denial of service via a crafted TIFF Internet Fax image
file that has been compressed using CCITT Group 4 encoding.
CVE-2011-1167
Heap-based buffer overflow in the thunder (aka ThunderScan)
decoder allows to execute arbitrary code via a TIFF file that
has an unexpected BitsPerSample value.
For the oldstable distribution (lenny), these problems have been
fixed in version 3.8.2-11.4.
For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been
fixed in version 3.9.4-5+squeeze1.
For the testing distribution, the first two problems have been fixed
in version 3.9.4-8, the last problem will be fixed soon.
For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed
in version 3.9.4-9.
We recommend that you upgrade your tiff packages.
