REDHAT-BUG-2533111: Buffer Overflow

Published Sep 14, 2026
·
Updated

A flaw was found in libgd. Processing a specially crafted GIF file allows a remote attacker to trigger a buffer overflow, resulting in an application crash and a denial of service. Arbitrary code execution is possible in theory, but considered highly unlikely because standard image decompression and pixel manipulation generally destroy the exploit payload.
