The SLES security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for SLES:15.4.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream giflib-devel package and not the giflib-devel package as distributed by SLES.
The DGifDecompressLine function in dgif_lib.c in GIFLIB (possibly version 3.0.x), as later shipped in cgif.c in sam2p 0.49.4, has a heap-based buffer overflow because a certain "Private->RunningCode - 2" array index is not checked. This will lead to a denial of service or possibly unspecified other impact.
