CVE-2022-3598

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions LibTIFF version 4.4.0

Description The issue is related to an out-of-bounds write in the extractContigSamplesShifted24bits function, allowing attackers to cause a denial-of-service via a crafted tiff file. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to disrupt service.

Recommendations For LibTIFF version 4.4.0, users who compile libtiff from sources can apply the fix available with commit cfbb883b. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the extractContigSamplesShifted24bits function in tools/tiffcrop.c until a patch is available.
