GD Graphics Library Remote Integer Overflow Vulnerability

The GD Graphics Library (gdlib) is affected by an integer overflow that facilitates a heap overflow. This issue is due to the library's failure to do proper sanity checking on size values contained within image-format files.

An attacker may leverage this issue to manipulate process heap memory, potentially leading to code execution and compromise of the computer running the affected library.
