Buffer overflow in the PixarLogDecode function in tif_pixarlog.c in LibTIFF 4.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted TIFF image, as demonstrated by overwriting the vgetparent function pointer with rgb2ycbcr.

vapier@, looks like you've been pulling in security patches in the past for this library?

jorgelo@, not sure how many days it will be until vapier@ sees this, so maybe you or I could pull in this patch? let me know if you want me to handle it
Status: WontFix (was: Untriaged)
Looks like we're at libtiff 4.0.9, so this might not impact us?

$ equery-eve k tiff
* Checking media-libs/tiff-4.0.9 ...
Ah my bad. Yep
