CVE-2011-2485

Publication date 3 July 2012

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The gdk_pixbuf__gif_image_load function in gdk-pixbuf/io-gif.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.23.5 does not properly handle certain return values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted GIF image file.
