The DumpModeEncode function in tif_dumpmode.c in the bmp2tiff tool in LibTIFF 4.0.6 and earlier, when the "-c none" option is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) via a crafted BMP image.

This issue did not affect the versions of libtiff as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7. This issue did not affect the versions of compat-libtiff3 as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, as they did not include the bmp2tiff tool.
