Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): PHP 4.3.9 How reproducible: Use the function ImageCreateFromGif Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a PHP script that uses the function ImageCreateFromGif Actual results: The tempfile created by ImageCreateFromGif still exists Expected results: No tempfiles should remain Additional info: This causes a full /tmp partition on webservers that use the ImageCreateFromGif function. This leads to server problems and can be used as a DoS attack on the webserver by a local user. This is especially important for webhosting providers like us, where there are many 'external' users who can upload PHP scripts. The bug has been fixed by the PHP developers on 2004/11/02, so I am very disappointed that Red Hat has nog included this (imho important) fix yet. The diff in on the supplied URL.
