CVE-2018-10114
Status: ModifiedHigh (8.8)—
An issue was discovered in GEGL through 0.3.32. The gegl_buffer_iterate_read_simple function in buffer/gegl-buffer-access.c allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (write access violation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a malformed PPM file, related to improper restrictions on memory allocation in the ppm_load_read_header function in operations/external/ppm-load.c.
CVSS
- Version: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Base score: 8.8
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.89%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 79
- Score date: 9/30/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

La función gegl_buffer_iterate_read_simple en buffer/gegl-buffer-access.c permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (violación de acceso de escritura) o que pueda tener cualquier otro tipo de impacto sin especificar mediante un archivo PPM mal formado. Esto se relaciona con las restricciones incorrectas de asignación de memoria en la función bppm_load_read_header en operations/external/ppm-load.c."
