Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for gimp.

CVE-2026-59090[0]:
| A flaw was found in GIMP's PSD file format plugin. This
| vulnerability, an unsigned integer underflow in the `block_rem`
| variable, occurs when a user opens a specially crafted `.psd` image
| file. The underflow leads to parser confusion, enabling an attacker
| to inject arbitrary data as layer resource blocks. This can
| ultimately result in arbitrary code execution, allowing the attacker
| to run malicious code on the victim's system.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
