GIMP ICNS 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 ICNS 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-28530.

CVE-2026-33766 [MEDIUM] CWE-918 AVideo has SSRF Protection Bypass via HTTP Redirect in Image Download Endpoints
AVideo has SSRF Protection Bypass via HTTP Redirect in Image Download Endpoints
## Summary
`isSSRFSafeURL()` validates URLs against private/reserved IP ranges before fetching, but `url_get_contents()` follows HTTP redirects without re-validating the redirect target. An attacker can bypass SSRF protection by redirecting from a public URL to an internal target.
## Root Cause
**Check-time:** `isSSRFSafeURL()` at `objects/functions.php:4066` resolves the hostname and validates the IP.
**Use-time:** `url_get_contents()` at `objects/functions.php:1990` calls `file_get_contents()` with PHP's default `follow_location=1` — redirects are followed without re-validation. The wget fallback at line 2047 also follows redirects by default.
**Affected endpoint:** `objects/aVideoEncoderReceiveImage.js
