Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
GIMP (affected versions not specified)
Description
A heap-based buffer overflow exists in GIMP's processing of PSP files. This issue can allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system. User interaction is required, as the target must open a malicious PSP file or visit a malicious page hosting such a file. The flaw is due to insufficient validation of the length of user-supplied data before copying it into a heap-based buffer. An attacker can exploit this to execute code within the context of the current process. A heap overflow condition is a type of buffer overflow where the overwritten buffer is allocated in the heap memory, typically using a function like
malloc(). This can impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
