Debian DLA-1227-1 : imagemagick security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 105496

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Several security vulnerabilities were discovered in ImageMagick, an image manipulation program, that allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU exhaustion via an infinite loop), heap-based buffer overreads or possibly other unspecified impact via a crafted image file.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 8:6.7.7.10-5+deb7u19.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
