Amazon Linux 2023 : ImageMagick, ImageMagick-c++, ImageMagick-c++-devel (ALAS2023-2023-121)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 173066

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2023 host is missing a security update.

Description

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-121 advisory.

ImageMagick 7.1.0-49 is vulnerable to Denial of Service. When it parses a PNG image (e.g., for resize), the convert process could be left waiting for stdin input. (CVE-2022-44267)

ImageMagick 7.1.0-49 is vulnerable to Information Disclosure. When it parses a PNG image (e.g., for resize), the resulting image could have embedded the content of an arbitrary. file (if the magick binary has permissions to read it). (CVE-2022-44268)

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

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

Solution

Run 'dnf update ImageMagick --releasever=2023.0.20230308' to update your system.
