CVE-2007-3477
Description
From CVE.org
The (a) imagearc and (b) imagefilledarc functions in GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a large (1) start or (2) end angle degree value.
Statement
Due to the minimal impact of this flaw (temporary DoS by high CPU usage) and low likelihood of this problem being exposed in a way that would allow trust boundary crossing, we currently do not plan to backport a fix for this issue to the versions of gd as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4 or 5.
