Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions

Description
The issue is caused by an integer overflow in the imlib2 graphic library on 32-bit platforms, which can lead to an out-of-bounds heap memory write operation. This can be exploited by a remote attacker using a specially crafted large image to execute arbitrary code.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 1.4.9, update to version 1.4.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of large images to minimize the risk of exploitation.
