Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions gtkhtml versions prior to 1.1.10

Description The issue is related to multiple vulnerabilities in the gtkhtml package, which can lead to a denial of service (crash) due to a null pointer dereference when a malformed message is processed. This can be exploited remotely, potentially disrupting the availability of protected information.
