CVE-2012-1173: Libtiff

Medium severity, CVSS 6.8. EPSS: 6.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Multiple integer overflows in tiff_getimage.c in LibTIFF 3.9.4 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted tile size in a TIFF file, which is not properly handled by the (1) gtTileSeparate or (2) gtStripSeparate function, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
