Debian has released security updates for two vulnerabilities affecting GIMP and libjpeg8. The GIMP vulnerability (CVE-2026) poses a high denial of service risk, while the libjpeg8 flaw involves a buffer overflow that could also lead to denial of service. Users of the oldstable (bookworm) and stable (trixie) distributions are advised to upgrade their packages to mitigate these risks.
