Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for ImageMagick.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2012:0544 advisory.

- ImageMagick: configuration files read from $CWD may allow arbitrary code execution (CVE-2010-4167)

- ImageMagick: invalid validation of images denial of service (CVE-2012-0247, CVE-2012-0248)
