openSUSE Security Update : gimp (openSUSE-2018-13)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 105713

Language:

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This update for gimp fixes the following issues :

- Don't build gimp with webkit1 support, as it is no longer maintained and has plenty of security bugs.

This disables the GIMP's built-in help browser; it will use an external browser when configured this way.

This works around a number of security vulnerabilities in Webkit1.

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project.

Solution

Update the affected gimp packages.
