Descriptions

GNOME gdk-pixbuf (aka GdkPixbuf) before 2.42.2 allows a denial of service (infinite loop) in lzw.c in the function write_indexes. if c->self_code equals 10, self->code_table[10].extends will assign the value 11 to c. The next execution in the loop will assign self->code_table[11].extends to c, which will give the value of 10. This will make the loop run infinitely. This bug can, for example, be triggered by calling this function with a GIF image with LZW compression that is crafted in a special way.

GNOME gdk-pixbuf (también se conoce como GdkPixbuf) versiones anteriores a 2.42.2, permite una denegación de servicio (bucle infinito) en el archivo lzw.c en la función write_indexes. si c-)self_code es igual a 10, self-)code_table[10].extends asignará el valor 11 a c. La siguiente ejecución en el ciclo asignará self-)code_table[11].extends a c, que dará el valor de 10. Esto hará que el ciclo se ejecute indefinidamente. Este error se puede desencadenar, por ejemplo, al llamar a esta función con una imagen GIF con compresión LZW diseñada de una manera especial
