CVE-2007-5137
Buffer overflow in the ReadImage function in generic/tkImgGIF.c in Tcl (Tcl/Tk) 8.4.13 through 8.4.15 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via multi-frame interlaced GIF files in which later frames are smaller than the first.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (4.86%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
