The imgfile module contains multiple integer overflows, this module is
only used on SGI boxes and is likely mostly unused and thus is fairly
low priority imho-- no repros, no poc, no sgi box :/

I'm only going to post one to give you the idea, there's no need for me
to (further) spam the bug database by filing a bug for each one of
these, they're all pretty much the same.

Here the variables xsize, ysize and zsize are all externally derived.
While xsize and zsize are sanity checked, ysize is not. This potentially
results in an integer overflow/misallocation at line 133 and writes to
invalid memory in the calls to getrow()
