Description
Multiple security vulnerabilities have been identified in the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP), an open-source image editing software included in many Linux distributions. These include heap buffer overflow, heap out-of-bounds read/write, and use-after-free issues affecting various image loaders such as DDS, PSD, and XCF formats. The vulnerabilities could potentially lead to memory corruption when processing crafted image files. Red Hat has issued an important security advisory providing patches for these issues in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.8 and related variants.
