Descriptions
The ReadOneLayer function in coders/xcf.c in ImageMagick 7.0.6-6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted file.
La función ReadOneLayer en coders/xcf.c de ImageMagick 7.0.6-6 permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria) mediante un archivo manipulado.
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.
