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) 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.
3) 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.
4) 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.
5) 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.
6) 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.
