CVE-2013-4232: Use After Free
First published: Mon Aug 12 2013(Updated: )
Pedro Ribeiro discovered a use-after-free flaw in the t2p_readwrite_pdf_image() function in tiff2pdf, a tool for converting a TIFF image to a PDF document. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted TIFF file that, when processed by tiff2pdf, would cause tiff2pdf to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running tiff2pdf.
