CVE-2015-7555 giflib: Heap-based buffer overflow in giffix utility
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in giffix utility of giflib when processing records of the type `IMAGE_DESC_RECORD_TYPE' due to the allocated size of `LineBuffer' equaling the value of the logical screen width, `GifFileIn->SWidth', while subsequently having `GifFileIn->Image.Width' bytes of data written to it.

| {
