Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Tavis Ormandy has reported some vulnerabilities in ImageMagick, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Boundary errors within the "DecodeBitmap()" function and the "ReadSUNImage()" function in sun.c can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows when processing specially crafted Sun Rasterfile images.

2) Boundary errors within the XCF image decoder can be exploited to cause a stack-based and a heap-based overflow when processing specially crafted XCF image files.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
