It has been classified as critical. 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 confidentiality, integrity, and availability.(CVE-2026-18301)\n\nA vulnerability was found in GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) TIF file parser. The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow. This vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability.(CVE-2026-18302)\n\nA buffer overflow vulnerability has been found in the TIF file parser of GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program). The vulnerability is classified as critical.
