Description:
------------
1. getimagesize() seems to artificially limit the size of valid WBMPs to 2048x2048, even though imagecreatefromwbmp() will happily load WBMPs of arbitrary dimensions.

2. There is an integer overflow bug that occurs when the size of the supplied WBMP, as indicated in the header, is greater than (2^31-1) resulting in invalid WBMPs returning a "valid" response. This may cause problems for scripts that use getimagesize() to detect whether a file is an image or not.


Test script:
---------------
-- WBMP 1, 2047x2047 --
00 00 80 80 80 8F 7F 80 80 80 8F 7F

-- WBMP 2, 2048x2048 --
00 00 80 80 80 90 00 80 80 80 90 00

-- WBMP 3, 2049x2049 --
00 00 80 80 80 90 01 80 80 80 90 01

-- WBMP 4, (2^31)x(2^31) --
00 00 88 80 80 80 00 88 80 80 80 00

-- WBMP 5, (2^32-1)x(2^32-1) --
00 00 8F FF FF FF 7F 8F FF FF FF 7F

-- PHP --
<?php
for($i = 1; $i <= 5); ++$i) {
    echo "WBMP ", $i, PHP_EOL;
    var_dump(getimagesize("wbmp" . $i . ".wbmp"));
}

Expected result:
----------------
WBMP 1
array(5) {
  [0]=>
  int(2047)
  [1]=>
  int(2047)
  [2]=>
  int(15)
  [3]=>
  string(26) "width="2047" height="2047""
  ["mime"]=>
  string(18) "image/vnd.wap.wbmp"
}
WBMP 2
array(5) {
  [0]=>
  int(2048)
  [1]=>
  int(2048)
  [2]=>
  int(15)
  [3]=>
  string(26) "width="2048" height="2048""
  ["mime"]=>
  string(18) "image/vnd.wap.wbmp"
}
WBMP 3
bool(false)
WBMP 4
bool(false)
WBMP 5
bool(false)


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

The size limitation of 2048x2048 has been introduced as fix[1] for
bug #29443. I'm not sure about the exact reasoning, but apparently
very large WBMPs can be considered rather uncommon, and obviously
the size restriction fixed the bug.

Best reason I can come up with is that the MPEG video file signature starts with "00 00 01 BA" which is the start of a valid WBMP header as well. That would result in a WBMP with a height of 7424 or greater.

Also, WBMPs smaller than 12 bytes produce a "Read error!".
 [2015-07-13 08:45 UTC] cmb@php.net 
To my knowledge, MP4 files start with a 32bit number (big endian)
that tells the size of the first atom. It *might* be possible that
there are MP4 files which are mistaken for WBMP even though the
dimensions are restricted for "valid" WBMP files. And of course
it's always possible that there are some arbitrary binary files
which can be mistaken for WBMP.

It might be best to add a notice to the getimagesize() man page,
that this function should not be used to try to detect whether a
given file is an image file. finfo seems to be preferable for that
purpose, but even that is not bullet proof.

> Also, WBMPs smaller than 12 bytes produce a "Read error!".

Indeed! That's caused by
<https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/php-5.6.11/ext/standard/image.c#L1276-L1279>.

That sounds reasonable, I could probably submit a documentation patch unless something is already being worked on.

However, I would still consider point #2 a bug. It should be possible to simply change the signed width and height to unsigned in php_get_wbmp().

That would be nice. :)

ACK

AIUI that wouldn't help much, as the dimensions of WBMP can be
arbitrary integer values, so we'd only delay the overflow. If, on
the other hand, we'd stick with the size restriction (2048**2), we
could simply bail out early if the width (resp. height) exceeds
2048[1].

And it might be reasonable to also avoid the "Read error" for WBMP
with less than 12 bytes. If I'm not mistaken, a WBMP of 8x7 is
only 11 bytes large.

Yep, I probably should have clarified that I was assuming the 2048x2048 limit stays. The width and height probably should be converted to unsigned anyways as the WBMP format uses unsigned ints as does the gfxinfo struct.

The 12-byte lower limit can be a problem for actual valid WBMPs, as it is a very compact format.

I submitted the doc patch a while ago, but I think it's still in the queue.

Thanks for the notice. I've committed your patch now. Thanks!
