Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (the affected version unknown). Affected is an unknown part of the component PCX export plug-in. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a integer overflow vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-190. The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound, when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This can introduce other weaknesses when the calculation is used for resource management or execution control. This is going to have an impact on integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in GIMP’s PCX export plug-in. For images with extremely large width and height, buffer allocation uses overflowing 32-bit width * height arithmetic while subsequent GEGL operations use the full extent, after integer overflow in size calculation

The advisory is available at access.redhat.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-106065 since 10/06/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. Local access is required to approach this attack. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.
