[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] [11] RFR JDK-8191023: PngReader throws NegativeArraySizeException when keyword length exceeds chunk size

[Prahalad Kumar Narayanan]

Hello Jay

Kindly ignore the point mentioned below with ( >) when you follow-up.
Lines 431 and 671 in webrev.01 are correct and we needn't change subtraction value. 

> Correction to the subtraction value from -2 to -1 in the following lines
>      431         int compressedProfileLength = chunkLength - keyword.length() - 2;
>      671         int textLength = chunkLength - keyword.length() - 2;    

Thanks
Have a good day

Hello Jay

Sergey has suggested a valid point- If the CRC was generated with incorrect chunk data, the approach I suggested will succeed and we would still end up in the exception within the parse_<chunk> methods. Hence going by if (...) checks is appropriate.

Few minor corrections to the webrev.01 are as follows:

. Correction to the subtraction value from -2 to -1 in the following lines
  The original code had -2 because, one extra Unsigned byte was getting read prior to the size calculation.
  The current changes advance the calculation by a few lines ahead of reading extra UnsignedByte.

      431         int compressedProfileLength = chunkLength - keyword.length() - 2;
      671         int textLength = chunkLength - keyword.length() - 2;    

. The result of these two operations are not the same due to the order of execution.
  If you had checked the logic and corrected the usage, it should be fine. 

      // Original code
      518         chunkLength -= metadata.sPLT_paletteName.length() + 1;
      // Code in the webrev
      526         int remainingChunkLength = chunkLength -
      527                 metadata.sPLT_paletteName.length() + 1;

. All the if conditions in the proposed fix check whether remSize < 0. I believe, we will need size "<=" 0 check. 
  Reason is that new <Type>[0] will succeed but subsequent read with stream.read* method will throw "ArrayIndexOutOfBounds: 0" exception.

Thank you
Have a good day

Prahalad N.

Is it possible that CRC will be broken/malformed as well as a chunk data?(For example if it is generated on top of incorrect data?), if yes then we should check the data itself for correct/incorrect values.
