CVE-2022-1622 [MEDIUM] CWE-125 libtiff: out-of-bounds read in LZWDecode
libtiff: out-of-bounds read in LZWDecode
LibTIFF master branch has an out-of-bounds read in LZWDecode in libtiff/tif_lzw.c:619, allowing attackers to cause a denial-of-service via a crafted tiff file. For users that compile libtiff from sources, the fix is available with commit b4e79bfa.
An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in Libtiff's LZWDecode() function in libtiff/tif_lzw.c. This flaw allows an attacker to perform a denial-of-service attack via a crafted tiff file, leading to the application crashing.
Statement: Versions of Libtiff shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux are not affected by this vulnerability as vulnerable code is not present in our code-base.
Package: libtiff (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6) - Not affected
Package: compat-libtiff3 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7)

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to addition
