This update fixes several vulnerabilities in imagemagick: Various memory handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitising may result in denial of service, memory disclosure or the execution of arbitrary code if malformed image files are processed.

This updates fixes numerous vulnerabilities in imagemagick: Various memory handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitising may result in denial of service, memory disclosure or the execution of arbitrary code if malformed DPX, RLE, CIN, DIB, EPT, MAT, VST, PNG, JNG, MNG, DVJU, JPEG, TXT, PES, MPC, UIL, PS, PALM, CIP, TIFF, ICON, MAGICK, DCM, MSL, WMF, MIFF, PCX, SUN, PSD, MVG, PWP, PICT, PDB, SFW, or XCF files are processed.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 6.7.7.10-5+deb7u16.

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.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the DestroyImage function in image.c in ImageMagick before 7.0.6-6 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-12877)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3681-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain malformed image files. If a user or     automated system using ImageMagick were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could     exploit this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the privileges of the user     invoking the program.

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

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

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201711-07 (ImageMagick: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in ImageMagick. Please       review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.
  Impact :

    Remote attackers, by enticing a user to process a specially crafted       file, could obtain sensitive information, cause a Denial of Service       condition, or have other unspecified impacts.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.
