"libtiff Directory Entry Count Integer Overflow Vulnerability "

Libtiff version 3.7.1 has the fix for this issue. Be careful until the updated package is released.

Thanks for that,

i don't use the library but it is very nice to know that it is sorted before it became a concern.

Of course, if we had M$oft, who knows when the oatch would turn up.
