Descriptions
A flaw was found in GIMP when processing XCF image files. If a user opens one of these image files that has been specially crafted by an attacker, GIMP can be tricked into making serious memory errors, potentially leading to crashes and causing use-after-free issues.
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in GIMP, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, which could result in denial of service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code if malformed XCF, TGA, DDS, FLI or ICO files are opened. For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 2.10.34-1+deb12u3.
