Description:
------------
In php_base64_encode function, the safe_emalloc did not check value it alloc for string, which used to store the result of base64 encode function. This cause the length of string after encode > INT_MAX and caused the heap corruption some where else (example in this case is in chunk_split function)

PHPAPI unsigned char *php_base64_encode(const unsigned char *str, int length, int *ret_length) /* {{{ */
{
	const unsigned char *current = str;
	unsigned char *p;
	unsigned char *result;

	if (length < 0) {
		if (ret_length != NULL) {
			*ret_length = 0;
		}
		return NULL;
	}

	result = (unsigned char *) safe_emalloc((length + 2) / 3, 4 * sizeof(char), 1);  //<- muse check size of safe_emalloc here, must be < MAX_INT
	p = result;

Test script:
---------------
<?php

ini_set('memory_limit', -1);

$a = str_repeat('#', 0xffffffff/2-5);
var_dump(strlen($a));
$str1 = base64_encode($a);  
 
var_dump(strlen($str1));
chunk_split($str1, 11, $str1);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
No Crash

Actual result:
--------------
