CVE-2004-0929 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Heap-based buffer overflow in the OJPEGVSetField function in tif_ojpeg.c for libtiff 3.6.1 and earlier, when compiled with the OJPEG_SUPPORT (old JPEG support) option, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed TIFF image.. EPSS estimates a 8.09% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
