#9487 closed bug (fixed)

GIFLoad array subscript below array bounds

Reported by: pdziepak Owned by: pdziepak
Priority: normal Milestone: R1
Component: Add-Ons/Translators/GIF Version:
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: Blocking:
Platform: All

Description

Due to variable range propagation enabled GCC notices (incorrectly) that

newEntry[fOldCodeLength] = *fOldCode;

may be unsafe due to fOldCodeLength being a signed integer. When building under Haiku it results in a warning which is treated as an error.

To be honest I was a bit concerned about these copying loops but since I know nothing about GIF format and memcpy() is not an exact equivalent of them I decided to leave it as it is. It is out of scope of this patch anyway.

Note that the warning causes Haiku not to build from within Haiku.
