VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions GIMP (affected versions not specified)
Description This issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GIMP. User interaction is required to exploit this issue, where the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of DDS files, resulting from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this issue to execute code in the context of the current process.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
