Maintainer(s), please advise if you are ready for stabilization or call for stabilization yourself.
Comment 4 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2017-05-24 13:00:52 UTC
This bug has _not_ been fixed by upstream. There are no patches.
Comment 5 Thomas Deutschmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-05-24 16:36:27 UTC
From Debian:

> This is a duplicate of CVE-2015-7554, both were reported against tiffsplit
> While the _TIFFVGetField function is a generic function, CVE IDs seem to be
> assigned per tool using it, so CVE-2015-7554/CVE-2016-10095 refers to the
> tiffsplit tool

...and Debian uses https://sources.debian.net/src/tiff/4.0.7-7/debian/patches/28-CVE-2015-7554.patch/ (similar to RH). It is only a partial fix, however Debian and RH consider the vulnerability fixed...


@ Vapier: Can you please help to identify which patch from your commit should address the issue?

The patch he used is from here:

http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2599


+From 9bbbe303c8e5db20d7f687ee1ca19c98fb852044 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Even Rouault <even.rouault@spatialys.com>
+Date: Sat, 3 Dec 2016 15:30:31 +0000
+Subject: [PATCH] * tools/tif_dir.c: when TIFFGetField(, TIFFTAG_NUMBEROFINKS,
+ ) is called, limit the return number of inks to SamplesPerPixel, so that code
+ that parses ink names doesn't go past the end of the buffer. Reported by
+ Agostino Sarubbo. Fixes http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2599

It is applied as Vapier said.  I see nothing indicating this is a partial fix.

This is also a DoS.

@maintainers, please clean the vulnerable versions.
