Last modified

CVE-2006-1060 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Heap-based buffer overflow in zgv before 5.8 and xzgv before 0.8 might allow user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a JPEG image with more than 3 output components, such as a CMYK or YCCK color space, which causes less memory to be allocated than required.. EPSS estimates a 4.07% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
