When processing a specially crafted PIX image file, the plugin allocates a Variable-Length Array (VLA) on the stack without proper bounds checking, causing an unbounded stack allocation followed by a 21-byte stack over-read. This can result in a denial of service due to stack exhaustion and a limited information disclosure of stack memory contents into an intermediate file.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `gimp >= 3.0.0, <= 3.3.1`\n- `enterprise_linux = 9.0`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":34,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":33.6,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
