CVE-2026-120434

HighCVSS 7.8
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Netpbm before 10.86.51, 11.x before 11.02.30, and 11.03 before 11.15.08 contains a stack-based buffer overflow in picttoppm's scanPoly() function in converter/ppm/picttoppm.c. Attackers can supply a crafted PICT file whose polygon edges produce more than 5000 points, overflowing the coord stack array to crash the converter or potentially execute code.

Risk Assessment

May lead to converter crashes or potential arbitrary code execution when processing untrusted PICT files. Poses a threat in systems processing user-supplied images.

Recommendation

Update Netpbm to version 10.86.51, 11.02.30, 11.15.08 or later, as appropriate for the branch. Avoid processing untrusted PICT files until the update is applied.
