libvips is a fast image processing library with low memory needs. On 32-bit systems in versions before and including 8.18.0, the gifload operation could incorrectly determine dimensions leading to an integer overflow. This has been patched in version 8.18.1.
CVE-2026-33328
This medium-severity CVE scores 6.8 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 98% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
