Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.81%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Stack-based buffer overflow in the loadit function in plug-ins/common/sphere-designer.c in the SPHERE DESIGNER plugin in GIMP 2.6.11 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long "Number of lights" field in a plugin configuration file. NOTE: it may be uncommon to obtain a GIMP plugin configuration file from an untrusted source that is separate from the distribution of the plugin itself.
