An attacker can create values of v (type int) which are larger than the array im->open (256 bytes). If the value of im->open[v] happens to be non-zero, it is overwritten with a zero on line 593. This corrupts the heap. The attacker can't control what value is overwritten (always 0), but they could control which bytes are overwritten. libgd should clamp values of v to be between acceptable values [0,255]. Note that values of v are clamped to 4096, since this is the maximum number of bits per codeword that gd will accept, so it isn't an arbitrary overwrite. It is enough to corrupt the heap and cause a DoS though. Reproduce code: --------------- I have a sample .gif file.
