1706,[PATCH] GDAL In Memory Raster extracts invalid memory address in case the address is greater than MAX_LONG.,ReinerBeck,rouault,"The problem is actually in file cpl_conv.cpp: CPLScanPointer():
In case a non-hex value is provided as the pointer for the memory image, the function ""CPLScanLong()"" should not be used, as it does not handle values above MAX_LONG correctly. In case the value is greater, the method returns a wrong address, resulting in a segmentation violation when accessing the image data.

Workaround: In case hex addresses are used, the address is extracted correctly.

Solution: There should be a method CPLScanULong() which should be sued.
