It was found that libgd did not properly handle invalid color index, which could lead to a denial of service against applications using the libgd library.

Created gd tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 1351604]
The functionality affected by this flaw was introduced after gd-2.0.35, which is the latest version packaged in RHEL.
The impact of this flaw is limited by gd_security.c: specifying an out of range colour will cause out-of-bounds reads in gdImageCropThreshold, which can lead to an attempt to crop the image to an invalid size. Bounds checks in gdImageCrop* functions ensure that no OOB data is copied into the final image, and overflow2() prevents allocations from failing due to overflow/negative sizes. Maximum impact is a crash, but CVSS needs to reflect AV:N.
