Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-0797)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted ICO file, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-2044)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted PGM file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-2045)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted XWD file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


4) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-2048)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted XWD file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


5) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-2047)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted ICNS file, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
