ImageMagick 6.7.5-7 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted offset and count values in the ResolutionUnit tag in the EXIF IFD0 of an image.

Specially crafted files could cause overflows in ImageMagick

A flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed images with malformed Exchangeable image file format (Exif) metadata. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened by a victim, would cause ImageMagick to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-0247)

A denial of service flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed images with malformed Exif metadata. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened by a victim, could cause ImageMagick to enter an infinite loop. (CVE-2012-0248)

It was found that ImageMagick utilities tried to load ImageMagick configuration files from the current working directory. If a user ran an ImageMagick utility in an attacker-controlled directory containing a specially crafted ImageMagick configuration file, it could cause the utility to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2010-4167)

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed certain Exif tags with a large components count. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened by a victim, could cause ImageMagick to access invalid memory and crash.
(CVE-2012-0259)

A denial of service flaw was found in the way ImageMagick decoded certain JPEG images. A remote attacker could provide a JPEG image with specially crafted sequences of RST0 up to RST7 restart markers (used to indicate the input stream to be corrupted), which once processed by ImageMagick, would cause it to consume excessive amounts of memory and CPU time. (CVE-2012-0260)

An out-of-bounds buffer read flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed certain TIFF image files. A remote attacker could provide a TIFF image with a specially crafted Exif IFD value (the set of tags for recording Exif-specific attribute information), which once opened by ImageMagick, would cause it to crash. (CVE-2012-1798)

This update of ImageMagick fixes multiple security vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers via specially crafted image files :

  - Integer overflow when processing EXIF directory entries     with tags of e.g. format 5 (EXIF_FMT_URATIONAL) and a     large components count. (CVE-2012-0259 / CVE-2012-1610)

  - Integer overflows via 'number_bytes' and 'offset' could     lead to memory corruption. (CVE-2012-0247 /     CVE-2012-1185)

  - Denial of service via 'profile.c'. (CVE-2012-0248 /     CVE-2012-1186)

  - Denial of service via JPEG restart markers (excessive     CPU consumption). (CVE-2012-0260)

  - Copying of invalid memory when reading TIFF EXIF IFD.
    (CVE-2012-1798)

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in imagemagick :

A flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed images with malformed Exchangeable image file format (Exif) metadata. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened by a victim, would cause ImageMagick to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code (CVE-2012-0247).

A denial of service flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed images with malformed Exif metadata. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened by a victim, could cause ImageMagick to enter an infinite loop (CVE-2012-0248).

The original fix for CVE-2012-0247 failed to check for the possibility of an integer overflow when computing the sum of number_bytes and offset. This resulted in a wrap around into a value smaller than length, making original CVE-2012-0247 introduced length check still to be possible to bypass, leading to memory corruption (CVE-2012-1185).

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed certain Exif tags with a large components count. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened by a victim, could cause ImageMagick to access invalid memory and crash (CVE-2012-0259).

A denial of service flaw was found in the way ImageMagick decoded certain JPEG images. A remote attacker could provide a JPEG image with specially crafted sequences of RST0 up to RST7 restart markers (used to indicate the input stream to be corrupted), which once processed by ImageMagick, would cause it to consume excessive amounts of memory and CPU time (CVE-2012-0260).

An out-of-bounds buffer read flaw was found in the way ImageMagick processed certain TIFF image files. A remote attacker could provide a TIFF image with a specially crafted Exif IFD value (the set of tags for recording Exif-specific attribute information), which once opened by ImageMagick, would cause it to crash (CVE-2012-1798).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

This update also fixes the following bug :

  - The fix for a bug provided by a previous ImageMagick     update, introduced a regression. Attempting to use     the'convert' utility to convert a PostScript document     could fail with a '/undefinedfilename' error. With this     update, conversion works as expected.

Two security vulnerabilities related to EXIF processing were discovered in ImageMagick, a suite of programs to manipulate images.

  - CVE-2012-0247     When parsing a maliciously crafted image with incorrect     offset and count in the ResolutionUnit tag in EXIF IFD0,     ImageMagick writes two bytes to an invalid address.

  - CVE-2012-0248     Parsing a maliciously crafted image with an IFD whose     all IOP tags value offsets point to the beginning of the     IFD itself results in an endless loop and a denial of     service.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201203-09 (ImageMagick: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

    Two vulnerabilities have been found in ImageMagick:
      Incorrect offset and count values in the ResolutionUnit tag in EXIF         IFD could cause memory corruption (CVE-2012-0247).
      IOP tag offsets pointing to the beginning of an IFD could cause an         infinite loop of ImageMagick parsing the IFD structure (CVE-2012-0248).
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted image,       possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service       condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.
