tools/pal2rgb.c in pal2rgb in LibTIFF 4.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (TIFFSetupStrips heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted TIFF file.
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.
