An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the GIMP's Microsoft Windows Bitmap (BMP) and Personal Computer eXchange (PCX) image file plug-ins. An attacker could create a specially crafted BMP or PCX image file that, when opened, could cause the relevant plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP. (CVE-2009-1570, CVE-2011-1178)
A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the GIMP's Paint Shop Pro (PSP) image file plug-in. An attacker could create a specially crafted PSP image file that, when opened, could cause the PSP plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP. (CVE-2010-4543)
A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the GIMP's Sphere Designer image filter. An attacker could create a specially crafted Sphere Designer filter configuration file that, when opened, could cause the Sphere Designer plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP.
(CVE-2010-4541)
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.
