Package : gimp CVE ID : CVE-2025-2760 CVE-2025-2761 CVE-2025-48797 CVE-2025-48798

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in GIMP, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, which could result in denial of service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code if malformed XCF, TGA, DDS, FLI or ICO files are opened.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 2.10.34-1+deb12u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your gimp packages.
