Notes

sbeattie

texmaker added an embedded copy of libtiff in bionic

mdeslaur

Per the tiff developers, this API can't perform restrictions on imagewidth and imagelength, as high values are also valid. Application developers should be using the TIFFOpenOptionsSetMaxSingleMemAlloc() API. The upstream bug is likely to get closed, and this CVE rejected. Marking as deferred for now.
