Descriptions
In the function ReadTXTImage() in coders/txt.c in ImageMagick 7.0.6-10, an integer overflow might occur for the addition operation "GetQuantumRange(depth)+1" when "depth" is large, producing a smaller value than expected. As a result, an infinite loop would occur for a crafted TXT file that claims a very large "max_value" value.
En la función ReadTXTImage() en coders/txt.c en ImageMagick 7.0.6-10, podría ocurrir un desbordamiento de enteros por la operación de suma "GetQuantumRange(depth)+1" cuando "depth" es muy grande, produciendo un valor más pequeño de lo esperado. Como consecuencia, podría ocurrir un bucle infinito para un archivo TXT manipulado que pida un valor "max_value" muy grande.
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.
