CVE-2026-104065: Scribus before 1.6.7 and 1.7.x before 1.7.4 Heap Out-of-Bounds Write via Micrografx Draw Import
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 34/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.19% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. No account or password is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: scribus (openSUSE:Leap 16.0) 1.6.7-bp160.1.1; scribus (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 1.6.7-1.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to scribus (openSUSE:Leap 16.0) 1.6.7-bp160.1.1; scribus (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 1.6.7-1.1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Scribus before 1.6.7 and 1.7.x before 1.7.4 contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the importdrw Micrografx Draw plugin that uses an unvalidated y offset to select image scanlines. Attackers can craft a DRW file that, when imported by a user, writes decoded bitmap data outside the heap image buffer, causing crashes or code execution.
