Description (CNA)
GIMP PSP File Parsing Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GIMP. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of PSP files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28232.

A flaw was found in GIMP. Opening a specially crafted PSP file with GIMP can cause a heap-based buffer overflow due to improper input validation of the length of user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to open a specially crafted PSP file, resulting in a denial of service or potentially code execution in the context of the current process.
