CVE-2016-10269
LibTIFF 4.0.0alpha4, 4.0.0alpha5, 4.0.0alpha6, 4.0.0beta7, 4.0.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.0.3, 4.0.4, 4.0.4beta, 4.0.5, 4.0.6 and 4.0.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) or possibly have unspecified other impact…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.38%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
