Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for gimp.

CVE-2026-80101[0]:
| A flaw was found in the file-xwd plugin in GIMP. When processing a
| specially crafted XWD image file, the plugin validates the image
| width and bytes-per-line parameters independently rather than
| ensuring their combined values are consistent with the allocated
| buffer size. This incorrect validation leads to improper bounds
| checking, causing a heap out-of-bounds read. This issue can result
| in an application crash, leading to a denial of service, or a
| limited information disclosure of heap memory contents into the
| produced image.


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