An issue was discovered in gif2apng 1.9. There is a stack-based buffer overflow involving a while loop. An attacker has little influence over the data written to the stack, making it unlikely that the flow of control can be subverted.

0.76% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 55% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
