+Subject: Fix integer overflow resulting in insufficient heap allocation
+
+IMAGE_DIMENSIONS_OK ensures that image width and height are less then
+46340, so that maximum number of pixels is ~2**31.
+
+Unfortunately, there are a lot of code that allocates image data with
+something like
+
+ malloc(w * h * sizeof(DATA32));
+
+Obviously, on 32-bit machines this results in integer overflow,
+insufficient heap allocation, with [massive] out-of-bounds heap
+overwrite.
+Either X_MAX should be reduced to 32767, or (w)*(h) should be checked to
+not exceed ULONG_MAX/sizeof(DATA32).
+
+Security implications:
+*) for 32-bit machines: insufficient heap allocation and heap overwrite
+in many image loaders, with escalation potential to remote code
+execution;
+*) for 64-bit machines: it seems, no impact.
