CVE-2013-3673

Publication date 10 June 2013

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

The gif_decode_frame function in gifdec.c in libavcodec in FFmpeg before 1.2.1 does not properly manage the disposal methods of frames, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access and application crash) via crafted GIF data.
