NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libgd2 package and not the libgd2 package as distributed by Ubuntu.
gd_xbm.c in the GD Graphics Library (aka libgd) before 2.2.0, as used in certain custom PHP 5.5.x configurations, allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory or cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer under-read and application crash) via a long name.
