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:14 relevant fixed versions and status.
Imager versions before 1.037 for Perl overflow a heap buffer fetching float samples from a paletted image in i_gsampf_fp.
For a paletted image, getsamples() with type "float" allocates a buffer of one sample per pixel and fetches every requested channel of each pixel into it. Requesting more than one channel writes past its end.
An attacker-supplied image controls the overflowing bytes through its palette.
