Title:
EOG and Firefox eat up memory when opening animated GIF
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
When trying to open a specific GIF file with either Firefox or EOG,
the process eats up all the system memory (4GB in my case), so the
system starts to swap and becomes unusable.
According to the file(1) utility:
evil-2336-6467_c39e.gif: GIF image data, version 89a, 20000 x 8880
Also, GIMP manages to open the file, showing 42 transparent frames of size
20000 x 8880, except the first frame, which is completely black.
KolourPaint, the Windows Explorer and the Windows Internet Explorer
display the file as a 44x44 pixel image, which I suppose is the
correct size. However, also the GNOME file open dialog displayes the
first frame from the file correctly.
Versions used on my system:

3.6.21+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1, from lucid-updates
gimp 2.6.10-1ubuntu3~ppa1~lucid1, from
