- SAIL is a cross-platform library for loading and saving images with support for animation, metadata, and
ICC profiles. Prior to version 1.0.2, the built-in WebP decoder can crash during loader initialization
when processing a malformed animated WebP file with inconsistent container or `ANMF` frame metadata. In
`sail_codec_load_init_v8_webp()` in `src/sail-codecs/webp/webp.c`, `WebPDemuxGetI` with
`WEBP_FF_CANVAS_WIDTH` can return a zero `image_local->width`, which is then used as a divisor when
calculating `bytes_per_pixel` from the image row size. The division happens before frame decoding and
before generic image skeleton validation in `src/sail/sail_advanced.c`, causing an arithmetic fault and
process termination. Applications accepting untrusted WebP images can consequently suffer denial of
service; builds must include the affected WebP codec. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.2.
