Vulnerability Insight:
Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in gimp:

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw, leading to invalid free, was
found in the way KISS CEL file format plug-in of Gimp, the GNU Image
Manipulation Program, performed loading of certain palette files. A
remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted KISS palette file
that, when opened in Gimp would cause the CEL plug-in to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
running the gimp executable (CVE-2012-3403).

Integer overflow, leading to heap-based buffer overflow flaw was
found in the GIMP's GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) image file
plug-in. An attacker could create a specially-crafted GIF image
file that, when opened, could cause the GIF plug-in to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
running the GIMP (CVE-2012-3481).

The updated gimp packages have been upgraded to the 2.6.12 version
and patched to correct these issues.

Additionally for Mandriva Enterprise server 5 the gegl packages
was upgraded to the 0.0.22 version and rebuilt for ffmpeg 0.5.9,
the enscript packages was added because of a build dependency, the
gutenprint and mtink packages was rebuilt against the gimp 2.6.12
libraries.

Affected Software/OS:
gimp on Mandriva Linux 2011.0,
Mandriva Enterprise Server 5.2
