ImageMagick 6.x < 6.9.4-3 / 7.x < 7.0.1-4 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 91818

Language:

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of ImageMagick installed on the remote Windows host is 6.x prior to 6.9.4-3 or 7.x prior to 7.0.1-4. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the VerticalFilter() function in coders/dds.c due to improper handling of malformed DDS files. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to open a specially crafted DDS file, to crash processes linked against the library, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-5687)

 - An overflow condition exists in the ReadWPGImage() function in coders/wpg.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling WPG files. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to open a specially crafted WPG file, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5688)

 - An invalid write error exists in the OpenPixelCache() function in MagickCore/cache.c due to improper handling of resources. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5688)

Solution

Upgrade to ImageMagick version 6.9.4-3 / 7.0.1-4 or later.

Note that you may need to manually uninstall the vulnerable version from the system.
