Description:
------------
Invalid color causes stack exhaustion by recursive call to function gdImageFillToBorder when the image used is not truecolor.

Source code:
https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/master/ext/gd/libgd/gd.c#L1811

    if (y > 0) {
        lastBorder = 1;
        for (i = leftLimit; i <= rightLimit; i++) {
            int c = gdImageGetPixel(im, i, y - 1);
            if (lastBorder) {
                if ((c != border) && (c != color)) {
                    gdImageFillToBorder(im, i, y - 1, border, color);
                    lastBorder = 0;
                }
            } else if ((c == border) || (c == color)) {
                lastBorder = 1;
            }
        }
    }

    /* Below */
    if (y < ((im->sy) - 1)) {
        lastBorder = 1;
        for (i = leftLimit; i <= rightLimit; i++) {
            int c = gdImageGetPixel(im, i, y + 1);

            if (lastBorder) {
                if ((c != border) && (c != color)) {
                    gdImageFillToBorder(im, i, y + 1, border, color);
                    lastBorder = 0;
                }
            } else if ((c == border) || (c == color)) {
                lastBorder = 1;
            }
        }
    }
    im->alphaBlendingFlag = restoreAlphaBlending;

This was fixed on libgd upstream:
https://github.com/libgd/libgd/commit/77f619d48259383628c3ec4654b1ad578e9eb40e




Test script:
---------------
<?php
$img = imagecreate(10, 10);
imagefilltoborder($img, 0, 0, 1, 0x139);

Expected result:
----------------
No crash

Actual result:

Seems to be libgd issue, please report upstream.
 [2016-06-07 04:48 UTC] pajoye@php.net 
@Stas it is done the same way. Gd is bundled with some php specific behaviors so it is all good. Most contributOrson in Gd are in the core as well.

Only thing we do is to be sure to release sec fixes at the same time.

Also not a security issue.

See https://github.com/libgd/libgd/issues/215

Sync coming for next php releases.

I reported the original github issue. May I understand the judgement to consider it security relevant or not?

When you (gd) guys fixed this [1][2](also reported by me to PHP) considered it a security relevant fix and somebody requested a CVE (Debian I believe)

[1] https://github.com/libgd/libgd/issues/213 
[2] https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66387

Both cause the same and occur because lack of validation of supplied values calling the function. This issue is not security relevant because...?

For one this bug is already public so making it private only for php helps little. :)

About the bug itself. It requires buggy code and local access. I am fine to have a CVE with a low level of severety, for clarity.

Pierre, I assume you'll merge the patch for PHP embedded libgd?

Yes and it is done already. 

I am not sure if I have access to 5.5 but 5.6+ has it already.

It was committed when we had issues with our boxes so mails did not make it along other hooks.

The commit: https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/6d3fa654b702c8762aa80ab795080f5c4464d677

It was public already that's why I committed directly. I also ask Anatol to merge it to 5.5 so it will get into the last release for this branch.

Merged the patch from bug #66387, so marking this one as duplicate.

Thanks.
