The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is an image composition and
editing program.

Henning Makholm discovered a buffer overflow bug in The GIMP XCF file
loader. An attacker could create a carefully crafted image that could
execute arbitrary code if opened by a victim. (CVE-2006-3404)

Please note that this issue did not affect the gimp packages in Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 2.1, or 3.

Users of The GIMP should update to these erratum packages which contain a
backported fix to correct this issue.
