Title:
  Practically-infinite loop in MagickCore/image.c -
  SetImageBackgroundColor

Status in ImageMagick:
  Unknown
Status in imagemagick package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SetImageBackgroundColor contains the following loop:

  for (y=0; y < (ssize_t) image->rows; y++)
    {
      register Quantum
        *restrict q;

      register ssize_t
        x;

      if (status == MagickFalse)
        continue;
      q=QueueCacheViewAuthenticPixels(image_view,0,y,image->columns,1,exception);
      if (q == (Quantum *) NULL)
        {
          status=MagickFalse;
          continue;
        }
      for (x=0; x < (ssize_t) image->columns; x++)
      {
        SetPixelViaPixelInfo(image,&background,q);
        q+=GetPixelChannels(image);
      }
      if (SyncCacheViewAuthenticPixels(image_view,exception) == MagickFalse)
        status=MagickFalse;
    }

  this means it can execute the inner loop 2^31 times for each valid
  row, for a potential maximum of 2^62 iterations.
