Package        : tiff3
Version        : 3.9.6-11+deb7u8
CVE ID         : CVE-2017-11335
Debian Bug     : 868513

A heap based buffer overflow has been discovered in the tiff2pdf
utility, part of the Tag Image File Format (TIFF) library.

A PlanarConfig=Contig image can cause an out-of-bounds write (related to
the ZIPDecode function). A crafted input may lead to a remote denial of
service attack or an arbitrary code execution attack.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
3.9.6-11+deb7u8.

We recommend that you upgrade your tiff3 packages.
