Mandriva Update for gimp MDVSA-2012:142 (gimp)

The remote host is missing an update for the 'gimp' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in gimp: A heap-based buffer overflow flaw, leading to invalid free, was found in the way KISS CEL file format plug-in of Gimp, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, performed loading of certain palette files. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted KISS palette file that, when opened in Gimp would cause the CEL plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the gimp executable (CVE-2012-3403). Integer overflow, leading to heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the GIMP's GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) image file plug-in. An attacker could create a specially-crafted GIF image file that, when opened, could cause the GIF plug-in to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the GIMP (CVE-2012-3481). The updated gimp packages have been upgraded to the 2.6.12 version and patched to correct these issues. Additionally for Mandriva Enterprise server 5 the gegl packages was upgraded to the 0.0.22 version and rebuilt for ffmpeg 0.5.9, the enscript packages was added because of a build dependency, the gutenprint and mtink packages was rebuilt against the gimp 2.6.12 libraries.
