Description:
------------
A malformed input to the function exif_read_data() can cause an out of bounds heap memory read access. This was found with american fuzzy lop.


To test run the test script on the attached file with PHP compiled with address sanitizer (-fsanitize=address in CFLAGS) and USE_ZEND_ALLOC=0.

It seems to be not possible to attach files to bug reports, I'll send the sample file triggering the bug to security@php.net
 [2016-04-24 10:17 UTC] hanno at hboeck dot de 
I found three further similar issues (and a smaller PoC testcase for the first one), will send them all to security@php.net
