CVE-2018-12713
Last modified
CVE-2018-12713 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.1/10 on the CVSS scale. GIMP through 2.10.2 makes g_get_tmp_dir calls to establish temporary filenames, which may result in a filename that already exists, as demonstrated by the gimp_write_and_read_file function in app/tests/test-xcf.c. This might be leveraged by attackers to overwrite files or read file content that was intended to be private.. EPSS estimates a 1.95% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
