CWE-119

Description

Stack-based buffer overflow in the tiffsplit command in libtiff 3.8.2 and earlier might might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename. NOTE: tiffsplit is not setuid. If there is not a common scenario under which tiffsplit is called with attacker-controlled command line arguments, then perhaps this issue should not be included in CVE.

• libtiff libtiff (<= 3.8.2) • libtiff libtiff 3.4 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.1 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.2 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.3 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.4 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.5 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.6 • libtiff libtiff 3.5.7 • libtiff libtiff 3.6.0 • libtiff libtiff 3.6.1 • libtiff libtiff 3.7.0 • libtiff libtiff 3.7.1 • libtiff libtiff 3.8.0 • libtiff libtiff 3.8.1
