Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in LittleCMS (aka lcms or liblcms) 1.19 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted (1) ICC color profile to the icctrans utility or (2) TIFF image to the tiffdiff utility.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
