Sec Bug #72697 select_colors write out-of-bounds
Submitted: 2016-07-28 06:38 UTC Modified: 2016-09-05 15:28 UTC
From: fernando at null-life dot com Assigned: stas (profile)
Status: Closed Package: GD related
PHP Version: 5.6.24 OS: *
Private report: No CVE-ID: 2016-7126
 [2016-07-28 06:38 UTC] fernando at null-life dot com
Description:
------------
Description
============

Type mismatch parameters between ncolors and colorsWanted parameters at zif_imagetruecolortopalette and php_gd_gdImageTrueColorToPalette, ncolors is a 64 bit integer and colorsWanted is 32 bits, ncolors' value 0x1000000000000000 becomes 0 inside php_gd_gdImageTrueColorToPalette.

Later, select_colors will not allocate enough memory and writes out of bounds.

===============================================

======================


This issue doesn't affect upstream libgd, overflow2 function check will prevent it:

https://github.com/libgd/libgd/blob/master/src/gd_topal.c#L686

LOCAL (void)
select_colors (gdImagePtr oim, gdImagePtr nim, my_cquantize_ptr cquantize, int desired_colors)
/* Master routine for color selection */
{
        boxptr boxlist;
        int numboxes;
        int i;

        /* Allocate workspace for box list */
        /* This can't happen because we clamp desired_colors at gdMaxColors,
          but anyway */
        if (overflow2(desired_colors, sizeof (box))) {
                return;
        }


https://github.com/libgd/libgd/blob/master/src/gd_security.c#L21

int overflow2(int a, int b)
{
        if(a <= 0 || b <= 0) {
                gd_error_ex(GD_WARNING, "one parameter to a memory allocation multiplication is negative or zero, failing operation gracefully\n");
                return 1;
        }
        if(a > INT_MAX / b) {
                gd_error_ex(GD_WARNING, "product of memory allocation multiplication would exceed INT_MAX, failing operation gracefully\n");
                return 1;
        }
        return 0;
}



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

$img=imagecreatetruecolor(10, 10);
imagetruecolortopalette($img, false, PHP_INT_MAX / 8);


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