GIMP XWD File Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Write 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 user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28265.

CVE-2026-45070 [MEDIUM] CWE-93 Symfony has Email Header Injection via Non-Token Characters in Mime Parameter Names
Symfony has Email Header Injection via Non-Token Characters in Mime Parameter Names
### Description
`Symfony\Component\Mime\Header\ParameterizedHeader` (and the related parameter handling reachable from `Symfony\Component\Mime\Header\Headers`) is responsible for serializing structured headers such as `Content-Type` and `Content-Disposition`, which carry `key=value` parameters (e.g. `Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="x"`).
RFC 2045 / RFC 5322 require parameter *names* to be `tokens`: a restricted ASCII subset that excludes whitespace, CR/LF, and the `tspecials` set. Symfony's parameter handling validates and properly encodes parameter *values*, but does not validate parameter *names*: the supplied name is emitted verbatim into the serialized header.
