Package: mozilla
Version: 2:1.7.8-1sarge3
Mozilla crashes when loading a gif that has 11160 columns. This gif
occurs in the wild in certain web pages from wunderground.com. Here is
a transcript that shows that the gif has 11160 columns and that mozilla
crashes when loading it:
# download copy of offending gif to local file bigbad.gif
$ wget icons.wunderground.com/graphics/360arrows-r-nogray.gif -O bigbad.gif
$ md5sum bigbad.gif
e62a1070bd11487709acb7417b7f2640 bigbad.gif
$ file bigbad.gif
bigbad.gif: GIF image data, version 89a, 11160 x 31
$ du -h bigbad.gif
80K bigbad.gif
$ /usr/bin/mozilla
http://icons.wunderground.com/graphics/360arrows-r-nogray.gif 2>&1
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
(Details: serial 1879 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Presumably any similarly shaped gif would cause the same behavior,
but if the remote version of the gif changes and you would like a copy
of my local version, please specify how I should send it (e.g., as an
attachment or uuencoded).

I cannot reproduce this with iceape 1.0.6-1. If you can please (ask us
to) re-open the bug and reassign it to iceape-browser.
