Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the do_layer_surface process when pixel index values from decoded XCF tile data are used directly as colormap indices without validation against the colormap size. An attacker can cause heap out-of-bounds reads and potential information disclosure by supplying a crafted .xcf file with a small colormap and out-of-range pixel indices.
