Description Sam Fowler 2018-03-14 04:15:40 UTC
Exempi through version 2.4.4 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow in third-party/zuid/interfaces/MD5.cpp:MD5Update() caused by a mishandled case of zero length in XMPFiles/source/FileHandlers/TIFF_Handler.cpp. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service via crafted TIFF image file.
