"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - A flaw was found in the file-iff (IFF/ILBM) plugin in GIMP. When processing a specially crafted IFF/ILBM
    image file, the plugin does not properly validate the HAM row size and improperly handles cases where the
    number of color planes (nPlanes) is zero. This causes a row size mismatch that bypasses memory bounds
    checking, resulting in heap out-of-bounds reads. This issue can result in an application crash, leading to
    a denial of service or a limited information disclosure of heap memory contents. (CVE-2026-82324)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
