Description

A flaw was found in TIFFGetProfiles() in /coders/tiff.c calls strstr(), which causes a large out-of-bounds read when it searches for "dc:format=\"image/dng\" within profile due to improper string handling when a crafted input file is provided to ImageMagick. The patch uses a StringInfo type instead of a raw C string to remedy this issue. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
