CVE-2026-14454 CRITICAL PATCH Act Now

Denial of service in the Imager image-processing module for Perl (all versions before 1.033) allows remote attackers to crash a worker process by submitting an image whose EXIF IFD entry count is mishandled as a signed integer, triggering an near-address-space-sized memory allocation that fails and aborts the process. Any application that passes untrusted images through Imager's EXIF parsing is exposed. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.18%, 8th percentile), and it is not listed in CISA KEV.

CVE-2026-8669 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Heap buffer overflow in Imager for Perl versions through 1.030 allows remote attackers to corrupt memory and potentially read limited data via specially crafted multi-frame GIF files. The vulnerability stems from missing bounds validation in the skip-image code path of i_readgif_multi_low(), which reuses a fixed-size buffer allocated for the GIF's global screen width without checking if subsequent image frames exceed these dimensions. Vendor-released patch available in version 1.031. CVSS 6.5 indicates network-accessible exploitation requiring no authentication or user interaction, though the impact is limited to low confidentiality/integrity with no availability disruption. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-8454 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Heap buffer overflow in Imager::File::GIF (Perl image processing library) versions through 1.002 allows local attackers to corrupt memory via specially crafted multi-frame GIF files. The vulnerability stems from missing boundary validation in the skip-image code path, which writes image data beyond allocated buffer boundaries when processing malformed GIF frames. With EPSS score at 0.02% (5th percentile) and no evidence of active exploitation, this represents a low-probability supply chain risk for Perl applications processing untrusted GIF files. Patch released in version 1.003.

CVE-2024-53901 MEDIUM POC PATCH This Month

The Imager package before 1.025 for Perl has a heap-based buffer overflow leading to denial of service, or possibly unspecified other impact, when the trim() method is called on a crafted input image. Rated medium severity (CVSS 5.5), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available.
