Description:
Andrei Nigmatulin has reported a vulnerability in ImageMagick, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the decoding of PSD images. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted PSD image.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability has been reported in versions 6.1.0 and 6.1.7. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 6.1.8-8.
