Package : giflib
Version : 5.1.9-2+deb11u1 $bookworm_VERSION
CVE ID : CVE-2026-23868 CVE-2026-26740
Debian Bug : 1130495 1131368
Two vulnerabilties have been found in giflib, a package of portable
tools and library routines for working with GIF images, potentially
allowing Denial of Service.
CVE-2026-23868
Giflib contains a double-free vulnerability that is the result of a
shallow copy in GifMakeSavedImage and incorrect error handling. The
conditions needed to trigger this vulnerability are difficult but may
be possible.
CVE-2026-26740
A Buffer Overflow vulnerability in giflib v.5.2.2 allows a remote
attacker to cause a denial of service via the EGifGCBToExtension
overwriting an existing Graphic Control Extension block without
validating its allocated size.
For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
5.1.9-2+deb11u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your giflib packages.
For the detailed security status of giflib please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/giflib
