Description Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2013-02-16 09:16:44 UTC
Using the Address Sanitizer tool, security researcher Atte Kettunen from OUSPG found an out-of-bounds read while rendering GIF format images. This could cause a non-exploitable crash and could also attempt to render normally inaccesible data as part of the image.
