Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2017-05-16 06:21:43 UTC 
CVE-2017-5849 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2017-5849):
  tiffttopnm in netpbm 10.47.63 does not properly use the libtiff
  TIFFRGBAImageGet function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial
  of service (out-of-bounds read and write) via a crafted tiff image file,
  related to transposing width and height values.

netpbm maintainer (Bryan Henderson) is on the upstream bug, so going to wait for them to sort it out
