Debian DSA-5564-1 : gimp - security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 186265

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The remote Debian 11 / 12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5564 advisory.

Michael Randrianantenaina reported several vulnerabilities in GIMP, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, which could result in denial of service (application crash) or potentially the execution of arbitrary code if malformed DDS, PSD and PSP files are opened. For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 2.10.22-4+deb11u1. For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 2.10.34-1+deb12u1. We recommend that you upgrade your gimp packages. For the detailed security status of gimp please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security- tracker.debian.org/tracker/gimp

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the gimp packages.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 2.10.34-1+deb12u1.
