Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-106063

high Nessus Plugin ID 363519

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

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

 - A heap-based buffer overflow was found in GIMP's DICOM export plug-in. When exporting an image with extremely large width and height, the export path allocates a buffer using a 32-bit width * height (and bytes-per-pixel) product that can overflow. GEGL then writes the full uncompressed extent into the undersized buffer (CWE-787), after integer overflow in the allocation size (CVE-2026-106063)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
