A vulnerability was found in LibTIFF up to 4.7.0. It has been declared
as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is the function
t2p_read_tiff_init of the file tools/tiff2pdf.c of the component fax2ps.
The manipulation leads to null pointer dereference. The attack needs to
be approached locally. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The
exploitation appears to be difficult. The patch is named
2ebfffb0e8836bfb1cd7d85c059cd285c59761a4. It is recommended to apply a
patch to fix this issue.
