This affects all browsers and not just Chrome, as the media falsely reported it. Mozilla just rolled out a fix, and Brave is looking into it. This bug is likely related to the “zero-click” iOS 0day that was reported by Citizenlab last week.

    There is optimization. Every frame in the gif can define a rectangle it’s drawn in on top of the previous image. This works fine for reduced color animations (like cartoons), but of course breaks completely for videos.

      Well, that’s something at least. I wonder how common its usage is.
