as of 2021-02-24, no upstream fix

likely fixed in upstream 4.0.7 release
reproducer in oss-security post

bionic and later are not-affected and the issue
is not reproducible in trusty (no huge reallocs
are made, as would be expected), and is also
not reproducible in xenial (no reallocs made
at all, according to ltrace output) with the
POC file provided in the oss-security post.
No upstream patch was identified after analysis
of the libtiff changelog file, as well as the
change history for the tiffdither code. Since
this is a 2015 issue, trusty and xenial will
be marked as ignored.
