CVE-2026-106065

MediumCVSS 6.3
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in GIMP's PCX export plug-in. For images with extremely large width and height, buffer allocation uses overflowing 32-bit width * height arithmetic while subsequent GEGL operations use the full extent, after integer overflow in size calculation.

Risk Assessment

The risk is that processing specially crafted images could lead to program crashes or potential code execution, compromising system security.

Recommendation

Update GIMP to the latest patched version and avoid opening untrusted images with extreme dimensions.
