Comment 3 Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2018-04-01 03:02:15 UTC
Analysis:

The code affects the _gdContributionsAlloc() function, which first appeared in gd-2.2.5. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7 does not ship with this gd version (or higher) either in an independent package or embedded with PHP, hence they are not affected.

_gdContributionsAlloc() first appeared in gd 2.1.0:

https://github.com/libgd/libgd/commit/423c9393917a9d1233fe163a45a0791da306b109

The problem was actually fixed in gd 2.2.4.

> Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7 does not ship with this gd version
> (or higher) either in an independent package

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and earlier do not contain the affected code.  The gd packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 are based on upstream version 2.2.5, and hence include this fix.

> or embedded with PHP, hence they are not affected.

While PHP versions did not embed newer upstream gd version, it did contain many backports of the newer functionality.  The vulnerable _gdContributionsAlloc() code was added in PHP 5.5.0:

https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/a7a53d369bfcf3208b445b9aa12aa8a6e114c5fd

I.e. the vulnerable code was added to php and libgd at approximately the same time.

However, this problem only got fixed in the gd version bundled in PHP in Jan 2019 in versions 5.6.40, 7.1.26, 7.2.14, and 7.3.1.  PHP upstream bug and commit:

https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77269
https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/a918020c03880e12ac9f38e11a4a3789491a5f85

The php:7.2 module packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 are not affected by this issue even though they are currently based on the upstream version 7.2.11, as they use fixed system libgd instead of using bundled gd.
