Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

SixLabors.ImageSharp versions before 2.1.11, and versions 3.0.0 up to but not including 3.1.11, are vulnerable. A specially crafted GIF file with a malformed comment extension block, missing its block terminator, can cause the GIF decoder to loop indefinitely, leading to denial of service; the attacker needs only to supply such a file to an application that decodes untrusted GIF input. Upgrade to version 2.1.11 or 3.1.11. No workaround is listed.
