Debian DLA-3007-1 : imagemagick - LTS security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 161205

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3007 advisory.

 CVE-2021-3596 A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in ImageMagick in versions prior to 7.0.10-31 in ReadSVGImage() in coders/svg.c. This issue is due to not checking the return value from libxml2's xmlCreatePushParserCtxt() and uses the value directly, which leads to a crash and segmentation fault.
 CVE-2022-28463 ImageMagick is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow. For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-11+deb9u14. We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.
 For the detailed security status of imagemagick please refer to its security tracker page at:
 https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/imagemagick Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at:
 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
