Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 / 23.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6521-1 advisory.

 - GIMP 2.10.30 and 2.99.10 are vulnerable to Buffer Overflow. Through a crafted XCF file, the program will allocate for a huge amount of memory, resulting in insufficient memory or program crash. (CVE-2022-30067)

 - An issue in gimp_layer_invalidate_boundary of GNOME GIMP 2.10.30 allows attackers to trigger an unhandled exception via a crafted XCF file, causing a Denial of Service (DoS). (CVE-2022-32990)

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