GIMP < 3.2.0 Multiple Vulnerabilities (macOS)

high Nessus Plugin ID 303973

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote macOS host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of GIMP installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 3.2.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- An integer overflow condition exists in PSD file parsing due to improper validation of user-supplied data. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted PSD file, to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2026-4150)

- An integer overflow condition exists in ANI file parsing due to improper validation of user-supplied data. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted ANI file, to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2026-4151)

- A heap-based buffer overflow condition exists in JP2 file parsing due to improper validation of the length of user-supplied data. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted JP2 file, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-4152)

- A heap-based buffer overflow condition exists in PSP file parsing due to improper validation of the length of user-supplied data. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted PSP file, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-4153)

- An integer overflow condition exists in XPM file parsing due to improper validation of user-supplied data. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted XPM file, to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2026-4154)

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

Solution

Upgrade to GIMP version 3.2.0, or later.
