Descriptions
Integer overflow in the ReadImage function in plug-ins/common/file-gif-load.c in the GIF image format plug-in in GIMP 2.8.x and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted height and len properties in a GIF image file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
Desbordamiento de entero en la función ReadImage en plug-ins/common/file-gif-load.c en el complemento de formato de imagen GIF de GIMP v2.8.x y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída de aplicación) y, posiblemente, ejecutar código arbitrario a través de las propiedades height y len en un archivo de imagen GIF,lo que provoca un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica. NOTA: algunos de estos detalles han sido obtenidos a partir de información de terceros.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in GIMP, the worst of which allow execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 2.8.2-r1 are affected.
