Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.
To mitigate this vulnerability, users should avoid opening untrusted Paint Shop Pro (PSP) image files with GIMP. As a general security practice, it is recommended to only process image files from trusted sources. If GIMP is not essential, consider removing the package to eliminate the attack surface.

Original source description
Read the full publisher description
A flaw was found in GIMP's Paint Shop Pro (PSP) file format parser. This heap buffer overflow vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause arbitrary code execution or a denial of service (DoS) by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted PSP image file. The vulnerability occurs because the software incorrectly calculates buffer sizes when processing low bit-depth images, leading to an overwrite of adjacent memory.
