#965334
Advisory
https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202601-03

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
media-gfx/gimp*< 2.10.38-r3, < 3.0.6>= 2.10.38-r3, >= 3.0.6

Background

GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. XCF is the native image file format used by GIMP.

Description

A vulnerability has been discovered in GIMP. Please review the CVE identifier referenced below for details.

Impact

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GIMP. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of XWD files. The issue results 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 vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All GIMP users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/gimp-3.0.6"

All GIMP 2.x users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/gimp-2.10.38-r3 =media-gfx/gimp-2*"

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
media-gfx/gimp*< 2.8.0>= 2.8.0

Background

GIMP is a cross-platform image editor available for GNU/Linux, OS X, Windows and more operating systems.

Description

GIMP’s network server, scriptfu, is vulnerable to the remote execution of arbitrary code via the python-fu-eval command due to not requiring authentication. Additionally, the X Window Dump (XWD) plugin is vulnerable to multiple buffer overflows possibly allowing the remote execution of arbitrary code or Denial of Service. The XWD plugin is vulnerable due to not validating large color entries.

Impact

A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process due or perform a Denial of Service.

Workaround

There is no known work around at this time.

Resolution

All GIMP users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/gimp-2.8.0"
