MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 2.25%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.25%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
There is a reachable assertion abort in the function TIFFWriteDirectoryTagSubifd() in LibTIFF 4.0.8, related to tif_dirwrite.c and a SubIFD tag. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
