Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from the Decode function in gif_io.cc, which handled GIF frame color maps without proper null checks. The patch explicitly adds a 'if (color_map == nullptr)' check to prevent dereferencing. The commit message and CVE description both directly reference this decoding logic as the vulnerable component. The file modification in the commit diff confirms the vulnerable code path was in this function.
