Comment 8 Even Rouault 2016-08-04 09:29:57 UTC
It would have been good to attach your patch to the upstream bug instead of letting libtiff maintainers to dig into the .src.rpm

Comment 9 Even Rouault 2016-08-15 20:12:32 UTC
Patch tiff-CVE-2016-3945.patch from libtiff-4.0.3-25.el7_2.src.rpm is incorrect. It rejects valid files. Fixed in libtiff upstream per :

* tools/tiff2rgba.c: Fix integer overflow in size of allocated
buffer, when -b mode is enabled, that could result in out-of-bounds
write. Based initially on patch tiff-CVE-2016-3945.patch from
libtiff-4.0.3-25.el7_2.src.rpm by Nikola Forro, with correction for
invalid tests that rejected valid files.
