Published by

Debian has released several security updates to address vulnerabilities in various packages, including Firefox-ESR, GIMP, and Node-Tar-FS.

1. Firefox-ESR has been updated to version 140.3.1, resolving connection issues with certain websites, particularly relating to HTTP/3 connections. This update is available for both the oldstable distribution (Bullseye) and stable distribution (Trixie).

2. GIMP has been updated to version 3.0.4-3+deb13u1, which addresses multiple vulnerabilities (CVE IDs: CVE-2025-10920, CVE-2025-10922, CVE-2025-10923, CVE-2025-10924) that could lead to denial of service or arbitrary code execution when processing malformed image files.

3. Node-Tar-FS has received updates across different versions for Debian 11 (Bullseye), 12 (Bookworm), and 13 (Trixie) to version 2.1.3-0+deb11u2, 2.1.3-0+deb12u2, and 3.0.9+~cs2.0.4-1+deb13u1, respectively. This update fixes a symlink validation bypass vulnerability (CVE-2025-59343) that could be exploited if the destination directory was predictable.
