--- Comment #2 from František Dvořák <valtri@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Quick peek at libtiff package uncovers following CVEs:

CVE-2012-4447
CVE-2012-4564
CVE-2013-1960
CVE-2013-1961
CVE-2013-4231
CVE-2013-4232
CVE-2013-4244

and anothers are upcoming. Even with exception from FPC, it would be quite hard
to maintain this...

But, in the original patch of native freeimage, bundling of libjpeg and libtiff
is solved (or rather worked around): JPEG transformation functions are simply
disabled, libtiff needs some patch and disabling G3 (fax).

I've looked at your patch and combined it with the current freeimage patch and
updated, and here are the results:

Or one tarball with the patches:
http://scientific.zcu.cz/fedora/freeimage-3.5.14/patches.tar.gz

- it looks like libmng dependency is not needed anymore
- convert newlines before patching is very good idea :-)
- separated patches could be good for future maintenance, but that's up to
packagers and co-maintainers of course
- main problem now is testing (it could help to push the patches to native
freeimage package...)
