Summary
GIMP has a signed integer overflow vulnerability in the file-fli plugin when processing FLI files, which can lead to application crashes.
Risk Assessment
A remote attacker can exploit this by tricking a user into opening a crafted FLI file, causing denial of service.
Recommendation
Update GIMP to a patched version and be cautious when opening FLI files from untrusted sources.

See all- CVE-2017-17789High
In GIMP 2.8.22, there is a heap-based buffer overflow in read_channel_data in plug-ins/common/file-psp.c.
- CVE-2017-17787High
In GIMP 2.8.22, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in the read_creator_block handler in plug-ins/common/file-psp.c.
- CVE-2017-17786High
In GIMP 2.8.22, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in ReadImage in plug-ins/common/file-tga.c, related to an unexpected bits-per-pixel value for an RGBA image.
- CVE-2017-17785High
In GIMP 2.8.22, there is a heap-based buffer overflow in the fli_read_brun function in plug-ins/file-fli/fli.c.
- CVE-2017-17784High
In GIMP 2.8.22, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in load_image in plug-ins/common/file-gbr.c, related to mishandling of UTF-8 data.
- CVE-2016-4994High
A use-after-free vulnerability in the xcf_load_image function in xcf-load.c in GIMP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (program crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted XCF file.
- CVE-2026-119528High
A flaw was found in GIMP's PSD plug-in: the image resource header loader uses an incorrect destination size when copying a converted resource name into a fixed stack buffer. Opening a crafted PSD file can cause a stack-based buffer overflow, leading to a crash and potentially arbitrary code execution.
- CVE-2026-92183High
GIMP contains a stack-based buffer overflow in APNG file parsing due to lack of proper validation of user-supplied data length before copying it to a stack buffer. A remote attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution in the context of the current process if the target opens a malicious file or visits a malicious page.
- CVE-2026-112261High
A flaw was found in GIMP. Opening a crafted XCF that selects a path and then fails to load that path can cause a use-after-free in the main process, leading to a crash and potentially arbitrary code execution.
- CVE-2026-112258High
A flaw was found in GIMP. The XCF loader can leave a dangling pointer in the linked-channels list when a linked channel is later destroyed via a selection property. Opening a crafted XCF file can cause a use-after-free in the main GIMP process, leading to a crash and potentially arbitrary code execution.
Original NVD description (English source)
A flaw was found in GIMP. A signed integer overflow vulnerability exists in the `file-fli` plugin when processing FLI image files. This occurs due to an incorrect calculation during memory allocation for image buffers, where the multiplication of image width and height can exceed the maximum integer value. A remote attacker could exploit this by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted FLI file, leading to the application crashing and resulting in a denial of service.
