CVE-2010-4540

Stack-based buffer overflow in the load_preset_response function in
plug-ins/lighting/lighting-ui.c in the “LIGHTING EFFECTS > LIGHT” plugin in
GIMP 2.6.11 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long
Position field in a plugin configuration file. NOTE: it may be uncommon to
obtain a GIMP plugin configuration file from an untrusted source that is
separate from the distribution of the plugin itself. NOTE: some of these
details are obtained from third party information.
