[pkg-GD-devel] Bug#492116: php5-gd: imagefill() segfaults

[Christoph Muehlmann]

Package: libgd2-xpm
Version: 2.0.33-5.2etch1
Severity: important

on this system (debian etch with security-updates) any call of imagefill() whithin php5-scripts 
stops the script. This makes it unpossible to create PNG-Files with transparent backgrounds in 
this way. The segfaulting Code:

<?php
	$thumbnail = ImageCreateTrueColor(GALLERY_THUMB_SIZE, GALLERY_THUMB_SIZE);
	imagesavealpha($thumbnail, TRUE);
	$bgcolor = imagecolortransparent($thumbnail);
	imagefill($thumbnail, 0, 0, $bgcolor);
	imagecopyresampled($thumbnail, $image, $tn_pos_x, $tn_pos_y, 0, 0, $newwidth, $newheight, 
		$width, $height);
	$ok = imagepng($thumbnail, $thumbfile);
?>

this Problem seems to be fixed in newer versions of libgd-xpm: the version in lenny doesn't 
segfault on my local Workstation (where lenny runs on). 

Thanks,

Christoph Muehlmann
