CVE-2024-6655

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions GTK versions prior to the fixed version

Description A flaw was found in the GTK library, allowing for library injection from the current working directory under certain conditions. This could potentially enable an attacker to elevate their privileges. The issue is related to incorrect code generation management.

Recommendations For GTK versions prior to the fixed version, consider restricting access to the current working directory to minimize the risk of library injection until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the vulnerable library until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
