CVE-2025-6199

3.3 · LOW
Published Jun 17, 2025 gnome CWE-200 EPSS 0.16% (5th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2025-6199 is a low-severity vulnerability affecting gnome gdkpixbuf. It was published on June 17, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.3 (LOW).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.3, rated LOW. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

A flaw was found in the GIF parser of GdkPixbuf’s LZW decoder. When an invalid symbol is encountered during decompression, the decoder sets the reported output size to the full buffer length rather than the actual number of written bytes. This logic error results in uninitialized sections of the buffer being included in the output, potentially leaking arbitrary memory contents in the processed image.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from gnome. Update gdkpixbuf to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
