Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Netpbm. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to achieve arbitrary code execution or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by crashing the application. The flaw occurs in the picttoppm converter when processing a specially crafted PICT image containing an excessive number of polygon points, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-05 21:58:40 UTC
Netpbm before 10.86.51, 11.x before 11.02.30, and 11.03 before 11.15.08 contains a stack-based buffer overflow in picttoppm's scanPoly() function in converter/ppm/picttoppm.c. Attackers can supply a crafted PICT file whose polygon edges produce more than 5000 points, overflowing the coord stack array to crash the converter or potentially execute code.
