Description

With the attached file, I get the following Valgrind warning :

==20574== Invalid read of size 2
==20574==    at 0x5052B80: GTIFNewWithMethods (geo_new.c:211)

==20574==    by 0x402B9B: main (gdalinfo.c:210)

This is due to the loop in geo_new.c around line 176:

    entptr = ((KeyEntry *)data) + 1;

[snip]

    for (index=1; index<=count; index++,entptr++)
    {
        if (!ReadKey(gt, &tempData, entptr, ++keyptr))
            goto failure;
			
        /* Set up the index (start at 1, since 0=unset) */
        gt->gt_keyindex[entptr->ent_key] = index;		
    }

So, the data array must hold at least "(count+1) * sizeof(KeyEntry)" bytes. data is allocated to have "(4+MAX_VALUES)*sizeof(pinfo_t)" bytes (lines 103 and 114), hence the test in the patch

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Patch applied in trunk (r1838). I wish libgeotiff had an error reporting mechanism!
