Gnome · Gdk-Pixbuf · CVE-2025-7345
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
gdk-pixbuf (affected versions not specified)
glib (affected versions not specified)
Description:
A flaw exists in gdk-pixbuf and glib, specifically in the gdk pixbuf jpeg image load increment function and g base64 encode step, respectively. When processing maliciously crafted JPEG images, a heap buffer overflow can occur during Base64 encoding, allowing out-of-bounds reads from heap memory. This could potentially cause application crashes or arbitrary code execution.
Recommendations:
For gdk-pixbuf, consider disabling the gdk pixbuf jpeg image load increment function until a patch is available.
For glib, restrict the use of the g base64 encode step function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
