DESCRIPTION:
Ivan Fratric has reported a vulnerability in PHP, which potentially
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow within the
"readwbmp()" function in ext/gd/libgd/wbmp.c. This can be exploited
to e.g. cause a DoS by tricking a PHP script into loading a specially
crafted wbmp image.

The vulnerability is reported in version 5.2.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Fixed in the CVS repository.
