Hi All
Its regarding the Security Advisory 2896666.
I have applied the fix explained in the advisory i.e. did a registry entry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Gdiplus and created DWORD DisableTIFFCodec and set value to 1.
After the above fix i found that below behavior:
1. When i open a Docx file having a tiff inserted i get the below message instead of the Tif image.
2. If i open a new document and try to insert a tiff file to it, then it gives either of the below pop-up
Please let me know if this is the expected behavior after the above fix.
I have implemented this fix in few more machines [Win Vista & Win 7 Office 2007]. But found that in few machine it works as above but for some it doesnt. When i say it doesnt it means i can view the attached Tiff.
Please confirm if my understanding is correct about the behavior of the fix.
Regards
Ramesh
