#19197 [Bgs]: Serious bug with ImageCreateTrueColor and/or ? file upload

ID: 19197 User updated by: bugsphp@yayel.com Reported By: bugsphp@yayel.com Status: Bogus Bug Type: GD related Operating System: Linux Redhat 7.2 PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: Ok, let's consider it's a gd bug. But why did php loops my script (you can look at it, there is no loop written) and tried to write several times the gif file and also insert into mysql (only one INSERT query coded) ?? I do not write in C, Perl, whatever, so I cannot try other language which can use gd to see if it also crashes or not. I think we should prevent with a php error message like "ImageGif cannot write a file with more than 256 colors"... mmm ? :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-04 12:29:45] sniper@php.net I bet the patches which enable this gif writing are buggy. Not PHP problem at all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-04 12:16:56] bugsphp@yayel.com Mmmm according to the Zend Weekly news #83, php4.3 may read Gif files (ImageCreateFromGif) but won't include the function to write them (ImageGif), so this "gd inside!" build is useless for people who still want to use ImageGif() function, and I'll continue to use it from a patched gd2 or a gd<1.6, that is to say link to an external gd. :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-04 11:43:27] bugsphp@yayel.com But does this build content all the GIF related functions (because of the lzh licence blablabla...) ?? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-04 06:18:37] sniper@php.net Reopening. It crashes, so there's really some bug in there. (although I believe it's in GD itself..) Please try this snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz And configure it same as you did before EXCEPT for --with-gd use --with-gd=php (thus using our bundled version of gd 2.0.1 which has some fixes in it) If you still get the segfault, please provide the backtrace and a SHORT example script which can be used to reproduce it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-04 00:01:07] kalowsky@php.net Comment added to the documentation.
