How to fix?

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tiff package and not the tiff package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

The OJPEGReadHeaderInfoSecTablesDcTable function in tif_ojpeg.c in LibTIFF 4.0.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak) via a crafted image.
