CVE-2013-1960
Heap-based buffer overflow in the t2p_process_jpeg_strip function in tiff2pdf in libtiff 4.0.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image file.
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 11.8%, higher than 96% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
