[ Dear security team: You can test whether Woody is affected by loading this
  image into gqview; if it causes a lockup it's affected as well:
  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=39270&action=view ]

Attackers can cause DoS against applications using GTK through BMP images
without palette information, which will lead into a double free().

See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171707
for full details and a patch.

Please refer to CAN-2005-0891 when fixing this.

Cheers,
        Moritz
