Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30067)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in GIMP. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted XCF file, trigger classic buffer overflow and perform a denial of service attack.
2) Off-by-one (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44444)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to an off-by-one error within the parsing of PSP files. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an off-by-one error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44442)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the parsing of PSD files. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44441)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the parsing of DDS files. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
5) Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32990)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to unhandled exception within the gimp_layer_invalidate_boundary() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted XCF file and crash the application.
6) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44443)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the parsing of PSP files. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
