Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
GIMP (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue arises from GIMP being built with webkit1 support, which is no longer maintained and contains numerous security bugs. This has led to the disabling of GIMP's built-in help browser, and it will instead use an external browser when configured as such. This change works around several security vulnerabilities present in Webkit1.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
