Crash in Superimpose with PHR mode

Description

The application Superimpose crashed with a segmentation fault during resampling:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

After investigation I found that the interpolated index was out of image bounds.

Steps to reproduce

Quite difficult to reproduce, I had this crash when running a larger processing chain calling OTB applications from Python. I tried to call the OTB application out of the chain but couldn't reproduce the bug. Basically, I ran Superimpose with the following parameters:

  • inr : a PHR Pan image
  • inm : the corresponding PHR XS image
  • interpolator : Nearest neighbor (this setting is important to reproduce the bug)

The application uses the PHR mode and resample the XS image with a otb::GridResampleImageFilter.

This filter doesn't check explicitely that input indexes are in the input buffered region. It uses a m_ReachableOutputRegion to crop the output region processed. The problem appears because an output pixel is right on the border of the input image extent, and since I use a nearest neighbor interpolator, this one converts the continuous index to an out-of-bound index. To illustrate on a simple case:

  • Input image
    • origin [0.5, 0.5]
    • spacing [1, 1]
    • size [10, 10]
    • so the physical extent is [0., 0.] to [10.0, 10.0]
  • If I have an output pixel whose center is at physical position [5.5, 10.0]
    • you can say that it is inside the input physical extent
    • but its continuous index in input image is [5.0, 9.5]
    • so its index is then [5, 10] -> OUT-OF-BOUND

Configuration information

OS: centOS 7 OTB: rev. 6aca6c3e Standalone package

Proposed patch

I solved this problem by adding an epsilon margin to compute the m_ReachableOutputRegion.

You can adapt this patch, it also answers partially the comment about interpolation radius in otbGridResampleImageFilter.hxx.superimpose_segfault.patch
