NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libimager-perl package and not the libimager-perl package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the BMP reader (bmp.c) in Imager perl module (libimager-perl) 0.45 through 0.56 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted 8-bit/pixel compressed BMP files.
