In ImageMagick 7.0.7-1 Q16, the PersistPixelCache function in magick/cache.c mishandles the pixel cache nexus, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference in the function GetVirtualPixels in MagickCore/cache.c) via a crafted file.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

(CVE-2017-14400)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Several security vulnerabilities were found in Imagemagick. Various memory handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitizing may result in denial of service, memory or CPU exhaustion, information disclosure or potentially the execution of arbitrary code when a malformed image file is processed.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-11+deb9u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3681-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain malformed image files. If a user or     automated system using ImageMagick were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could     exploit this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the privileges of the user     invoking the program.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

This updates fixes numerous vulnerabilities in imagemagick: Various memory handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitising may result in denial of service, memory disclosure, or the execution of arbitrary code if malformed XCF, VIFF, BMP, thumbnail, CUT, PSD, TXT, XBM, PCX, MPC, WPG, TIFF, SVG, font, EMF, PNG, or other types of files are processed.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 8:6.7.7.10-5+deb7u17.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.
