GIMP TIF File Parsing Stack-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 TIF files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-29399.
A flaw was found in GIMP. This vulnerability, a stack-based buffer overflow in the TIF file parsing component, allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. User interaction is required, as the target must open a specially crafted malicious TIF file. The issue stems from insufficient validation of user-supplied data length before copying it to a buffer, leading to potential code execution in the context of the current process.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as Important severity because successful exploitation can allow arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the logged-in user, potentially compromising local files and user data. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux, GIMP is an optional interactive image manipulation utility rather than a background network service, limiting exposure to active user sessions. Triggering the flaw requires a user to manually open an untrusted, specially crafted TIFF image.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this vulnerability, users should avoid opening TIF image files from untrusted or unknown sources. As this flaw requires user interaction to open a malicious file, exercising caution with file origins can prevent exploitation.
