An attacker can exploit multiple vulnerabilities in GIMP to execute arbitrary code.
CSIRTS triage
- What
- Multiple vulnerabilities in GIMP enable arbitrary code execution.
- Who is affected
- Users of GIMP processing untrusted files or exposed GIMP instances are affected.
- Urgency
- Medium severity; RCE capability requires prompt patching to prevent code execution risk.

Exploitation outlook
EPSS (FIRST.org) estimates each CVE’s probability of exploitation in the next 30 days — here is the CSIRTS.com read on those numbers.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-109200.44% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 37% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-109210.54% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 44% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-109220.77% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 53% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-109230.44% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 37% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-109240.44% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 37% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2025-109252.8% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 86% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
