✅ Remediation
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: To mitigate this issue, avoid processing untrusted or maliciously crafted TIFF files with applications linked against the libtiff library. If processing untrusted TIFF files is unavoidable, consider running the affected applications within a sandboxed environment to limit the potential impact of successful exploitation. This operational control helps contain the effects of an out-of-bounds write, reducing the risk of denial of service or arbitrary code execution.
