Descriptions
GIMP PSD File Parsing Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. 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 PSD 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 arbitrary code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22094.
Vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código de desbordamiento de búfer de almacenamiento dinámico en el análisis de archivos PSD de GIMP. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en instalaciones afectadas de GIMP. Se requiere la interacción del usuario para aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad, ya que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo malicioso. La falla específica existe en el análisis de archivos PSD. El problema se debe a la falta de una validación adecuada de la longitud de los datos proporcionados por el usuario antes de copiarlos en un búfer basado en montón. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código arbitrario en el contexto del proceso actual. Era ZDI-CAN-22094.
A parsing vulnerability was found in the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP). This flaw allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to trick a GIMP user into opening a malicious PSD file, possibly enabling the execution of unauthorized code within the GIMP process.
