Discussion

GIMP Multiple File Plugins Remote Stack Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

GIMP is prone to multiple remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because it fails to perform adequate checks on user-supplied input.

Successfully exploiting these issues may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.

GIMP 2.6.11 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
