TCL/TK Tk Toolkit TKIMGGIF.C Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

TCL/TK Tk Toolkit is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to cause denial-of-service conditions. Given the nature of this issue, remote code execution may also be possible but has not been confirmed.

Versions prior to TCL/TK 8.4.13 are vulnerable to this issue.
