  "details" : [ "LibTIFF 4.0.8 has multiple memory leak vulnerabilities, which allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption), as demonstrated by tif_open.c, tif_lzw.c, and tif_aux.c. NOTE: Third parties were unable to reproduce the issue" ],
  "statement" : "Exploitation of this vulnerability requires that an attacker can cause LibTIFF to process a specially crafted malicious file. This is only possible if a system allows untrusted users to submit images, or alternatively, if a user unknowingly takes an action to process a malicious image. Additionally, successful exploitation will result only in a Denial-of-Service (DoS) to the service or process that incorporates LibTIFF. For those reasons, Red Hat's analysis indicates the overall security impact of this flaw is Low.",
