-Coverity finally finished a build, fix a few problems:
+Imager 1.009 - 11 Jan 2019
+============
+
+Critical issue:
+
+ - drawing a filled, anti-aliased circle to the left or right of the
+ image (not within the image at all) would cause a buffer overflow.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=128208
+
+General changes:
+
+ - to_paletted() and make_palette() now fail (with an error in
+ errstr()) if invalid quantization parameters are supplied.
+
+ - map() would corrupt a channel if there was a gap in the arrayref of
+ channels. Detected by Coverity. CID 185300.
+
+ - most numeric parameters to the XS implementation now throw an
+ exception if supplied an unoverloaded reference.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=128208
+
+Coverity finally finished a build[1], fixed several of the problems
+found. Coverity went down before I could finish working through them.
+
+High severity:
- reading a color-mapped TGA file with an id string would cause a
- double-free if the palette was truncated.
+ double-free if the palette was truncated. CID 185317.
- mixing scaling to sizes where the accumulator row, the working
output row or the working input row didn't fit into the address
space could result in memory leaks. This can probably only be
- reproduced on very wide floating-point sample images.
+ reproduced on very wide floating-point sample images. CID 185318.
- convert an array style function parameter pointer to pointer style
to prevent confusing Coverity in the T1 bounding box implementation.
+ CID 185343.
+
+ - Similarly in the FT1 bounding box implementation. CID 185338.
- - Similarly in the FT1 bounding box implementation.
+ - Similarly for the i_tt_rasterize() function in the FT1
+ implementation. CID 185303.
- initialize a pointer to prevent Coverity complaining in polygon
- drawing (it should always end up being set.)
+ drawing (it should always end up being set.) CID 185341.
+
+ - addi style makemap could potentially read one past the end of an
+ array. CID 185337.
+
+ - supplying a numeric hatch of 32 to Imager::Fill->new(hatch => ...)
+ would result in read beyond the end of the built-in hatch array.
+ Negative values (which Coverity didn't complain about) could also
+ cause problems. CID 185331.
+
+ - the Imager::Color set_internal() interal method no longer
+ calls the over-complicated ICL_set_internal() (which is retained
+ only for the old API.) Coverity complained that this leaked, but
+ this could only occur with an invalid (NULL pointer) color object.
+ CID 185323.
+
+ - the underlying implementation of the map() method could read before
+ the beginning on an allocated array if supplied with inconsistent
+ parameters, which Coverity complained about. No Imager code calls
+ that function with inconsistent parameters, but a
+ belt-and-suspenders check was added. CID 185315.
+
+ - Coverity complained a call to i_getcolors(), used by the
+ implementation of the is_bilevel() method could leave the fetched
+ colors uninitialized. Added a return value check. CID 185308.
+
+ - a numeric combining mode of 13 (eg. as a parameter to
+ Imager::Fill->new())could cause an invalid array read in
+ i_get_combine() due to a fencepost error in validating the combine
+ number. CID 185299.
+
+Lower severity (according to Coverity):
+
+ - avoid an unneeded EXTEND() call when the FT1 has_chars()
+ implementation returns 0. CID 185350.
+
+ - avoid accessing a possibly NULL map from MakeMapObject() in a
+ logging call. (GIF) CID 185296.
+
+ - gradgen() allocated the wrong amount of space (always too much) for
+ the color array. CID 185291.
+
+ - avoid dead code in i_tt_glyph_names(). CID 185321.
+
+ - avoid dead code in i_get_anonymous_color_histo(), which is the
+ implementation of getcolorusage(). CID 185327.
+
+ - avoid dead code in i_ft2_glyph_name(), which is the implementation
+ of glyph_names() for FT2. CID 185342.
+
+ - avoid dead code in i_t1_glyph_names(), which is the implementation
+ of glyph_names() for T1. CID 185322.
+
+ - avoid an unneeded EXTEND() call when the FT2 has_chars()
+ implementation returns 0. CID 185292.
+
+ - the unpack code for ICO/CUR file handling could extend 32-bit
+ unsigned values to 64-bit signed. I believe this is harmless. CID
+ 185319.
+
+ - remove an unneeded check when terminating the stream for JPEG
+ writing. CID 185347.
+
+ - skip an unneeded check when freeing the combine temp buffer in the
+ fountain filter. CID 185286.
+
+ - check the combine function pointer consistently rather than the
+ combine code in one place in the fountain filter.
+
+ - error diffusion now validates a custom error diffusion map and reports
+ an error if it's bad. CID 185288.
+
+ - avoid discarding the value of i_io_getc() when scanning numbers in
+ pnm.c. CID 185293.
+
+ - handle failure to clone the log filehandle when cloning the Imager
+ context object on thread creation. CID 185294.
+
+ - fix an unsigned comparison when converting character code to a
+ glyph index with a NULL character map when calculating the glyph
+ for display for FT1. This should be rare. CID 185297.
+
+ - fix a similar bug when calculating whether a glyph is present for
+ has_chars() for FT1. CID 185302.
+
+ - i_img_info() (C API) no longer tries to handle a NULL image object
+ pointer. CID 185298.
+
+ - re-work testing for size_t overflow for circle/random
+ super-sampling for fountain fills. CID 185304.
+
+ - don't check if the unsigned size passed to Imager's malloc wrapper
+ (mymalloc) is negative. Left from when that parameter was signed.
+ CID 185305.
+
+ - make some types larger and add a cast to prevent integer overflows
+ when calculating a palette with median cut for extraordinarily
+ large images. CID 185306.
+
+ - don't check if the unsigned size supplied to
+ im_set_image_file_limits() is negative. CID 185307.
+
+[1] The first two build submissions ended up at the end of a ~400 item
+build queue, and seemed to have been cancelled by Coverity. A build
+submitted on NYE went through in minutes.
