Gerrit,

The GdkPixbuf library, that is also included in GTK+ 2, contains
vulnerabilities that could lead to a Denial of Service or the execution
of arbitrary code.

Solution: a patch for gtk+-2.x is required (URL below).

(BTW, Gerrit, what are your plans for GTK/GNOME?  I'm willing to take
stuff over if you've lost interest.)
