Red Hat Security Advisory: gimp security update Security Advisory secalert@redhat.com Red Hat Security Response Team RHSA-2012:1180 Final 1 1 2012-08-20T13:16:00Z Current version 2012-08-20T13:16:00Z 2012-08-20T13:16:00Z Red Hat rhsa-to-cvrf 1.0.1484 2012-08-20T13:36:02Z Updated gimp packages that fix three security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is an image composition and editing program. An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the GIMP's GIF image format plug-in. An attacker could create a specially-crafted GIF image file that, when opened, could cause the GIF plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP. (CVE-2012-3481) A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) decompression algorithm implementation used by the GIMP's GIF image format plug-in. An attacker could create a specially-crafted GIF image file that, when opened, could cause the GIF plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP. (CVE-2011-2896) A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the GIMP's KiSS CEL file format plug-in. An attacker could create a specially-crafted KiSS palette file that, when opened, could cause the CEL plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP. (CVE-2012-3403) Red Hat would like to thank Matthias Weckbecker of the SUSE Security Team for reporting the CVE-2012-3481 issue. Users of the GIMP are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. The GIMP must be restarted for the update to take effect.
