An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2012-3236 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Gimp Gimp. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3236/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3236/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-3236","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3236/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-3236","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2012-3236","GHSA-4g36-rrq2-qqqf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GIMP image editor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash GIMP by tricking users into opening a malformed .fit file, causing a denial of service.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"gimp","vendor":"gimp"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"fits-io.c in GIMP before 2.8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a malformed XTENSION header of a .fit file, as demonstrated using a long string.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2012-06-30","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2012-06-30","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"19482","stars":null,"title":"GIMP 2.8.0 - '.FIT' File Format Denial of Service"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3236","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"gimp:gimp","products":["gimp:gimp"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3238"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3234"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-07-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4541","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-07"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3909","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-11-19"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1570","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-11-13"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0723","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-03-23"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0733","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-03-23"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-12713","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-06-24"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Gimp: gimp: arbitrary code execution in psd plugin due to unsigned underflow","id":"CVE-2026-59090","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can crash GIMP by tricking users into opening a malformed .fit file, causing a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3236/"}
