Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-467-1 (gimp)

The remote host is missing an update to gimp
announced via advisory USN-467-1.

color tables. By tricking a user into opening a specially crafted RAS
file with Gimp, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code
with the user's privileges.

following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
gimp 2.2.11-1ubuntu3.2

Ubuntu 6.10:
