GIMP through 2.10.2 makes g_get_tmp_dir calls to establish temporary filenames, which may result in a filename that already exists, as demonstrated by the gimp_write_and_read_file function in app/tests/test-xcf.c. This might be leveraged by attackers to overwrite files or read file content that was intended to be private.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - GIMP through 2.10.2 makes g_get_tmp_dir calls to establish temporary filenames, which may result in a     filename that already exists, as demonstrated by the gimp_write_and_read_file function in app/tests/test-     xcf.c. This might be leveraged by attackers to overwrite files or read file content that was intended to     be private. (CVE-2018-12713)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

According to the versions of the gimp packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities were found in     GIMP in the channel and layer properties parsing     process when loading XCF files.An attacker could create     a specially crafted XCF file which could cause GIMP to     crash. (CVE-2016-4994)

  - GIMP through 2.10.2 makes g_get_tmp_dir calls to     establish temporary filenames, which may result in a     filename that already exists, as demonstrated by the     gimp_write_and_read_file function in     app/tests/test-xcf.c. This might be leveraged by     attackers to overwrite files or read file content that     was intended to be private.(CVE-2018-12713)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
