GIMP XWD File Parsing Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GIMP. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of XWD files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-27823.

CVE-2025-48798 [HIGH] GIMP vulnerabilities
Title: GIMP vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in GIMP.
Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that calculating the linear size of a
DDS file could overflow on 32-bit systems. An attacker could possibly use
this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 24.04
LTS. (CVE-2025-2760)
Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that GIMP did not perform any bounds
checking when calculating an offset into XWD Colormaps. An attacker could
possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2025-10934)
It was discovered that GIMP's PNM loader did not sufficiently check that
the image could fit within the allocated memory, which could cause GIMP to
