Package        : tiff
Vulnerability  : unsanitised input
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2004-1183

Dmitry V. Levin discovered a buffer overflow in libtiff, the Tag Image
File Format library for processing TIFF graphics files.  Upon reading
a TIFF file it is possible to crash the application, and maybe also to
execute arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.5.5-6.woody5.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.6.1-5.

We recommend that you upgrade your libtiff package.


Upgrade Instructions
- - --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
