NVD description

A flaw was found in GIMP's Paint Shop Pro (PSP) file format parser. This heap buffer overflow vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause arbitrary code execution or a denial of service (DoS) by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted PSP image file. The vulnerability occurs because the software incorrectly calculates buffer sizes when processing low bit-depth images, leading to an overwrite of adjacent memory.

    🚨High - GIMP Heap Buffer Overflow in Paint Shop Pro (PSP) Parser (CVE-2026-58379) GIMP's Paint Shop Pro (PSP) file-format parser miscalculates buffer sizes when processing low bit-depth images, overwriting adjacent heap memory. An attacker who tricks a user into opening a specially crafted PSP image file can trigger the overflow. The result is a denial of service (crash) or potentially arbitrary code execution in the context of the user running GIMP - a classic malicious-file, client-side vector requiring the victim to open the file. 👉Update GIMP to your distro's patched build (fixed upstream in GNOME GIMP commit b630f167).

    Post summary

    A high‑severity heap buffer overflow in GIMP’s Paint Shop Pro parser has been identified and patched in the latest distribution builds; users are urged to update.
