CVE-2016-7127

Published: 11 September 2016

The imagegammacorrect function in ext/gd/gd.c in PHP before 5.6.25 and 7.x before 7.0.10 does not properly validate gamma values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have unspecified other impact by providing different signs for the second and third arguments.

Notes

AuthorNote

The flaw is in the PHP code sitting in front of libgd2 and
