Synopsis |
16 |
======== |
17 |
|
18 |
An integer overflow in ImageMagick might allow remote attackers to |
19 |
cause the remote execution of arbitrary code. |
20 |
|
21 |
Background |
22 |
========== |
23 |
|
24 |
ImageMagick is a collection of tools and libraries for manipulating |
25 |
various image formats. |
26 |
|
27 |
Affected packages |
28 |
================= |
29 |
|
30 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
31 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
32 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
33 |
1 media-gfx/imagemagick < 6.5.2.9 >= 6.5.2.9 |
34 |
|
35 |
Description |
36 |
=========== |
37 |
|
38 |
Tielei Wang has discovered that the XMakeImage() function in |
39 |
magick/xwindow.c is prone to an integer overflow, possibly leading to a |
40 |
buffer overflow. |
41 |
|
42 |
Impact |
43 |
====== |
44 |
|
45 |
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted |
46 |
image, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code |
47 |
with the privileges of the user running the application, or a Denial of |
48 |
Service. |
49 |
|
50 |
Workaround |
51 |
========== |
52 |
|
53 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
54 |
|
55 |
Resolution |
56 |
========== |
57 |
|
58 |
All ImageMagick users should upgrade to an unaffected version: |
59 |
|
60 |
# emerge --sync |
61 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/imagemagick-6.5.2.9" |
62 |
|
63 |
NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are |
64 |
available since June 4, 2009. It is likely that your system is already |
65 |
no longer affected by this issue. |
