  Buffer overflow in gif2png.c in gif2png 2.5.3 and earlier might allow
  context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application
  crash) or have unspecified other impact via a GIF file that contains
  many images, leading to long extensions such as .p100 for PNG output
  files, as demonstrated by a CGI program that launches gif2png,
  a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-5018 (CVE-2010-4694).
