Descriptions

An issue was discovered in ImageMagick 7.0.7. The MogrifyImageList function in MagickWand/mogrify.c allows attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit in ReplaceImageInList) via a crafted file.

Se ha descubierto un problema en la versión 7.0.7 de ImageMagick. La función MogrigyImageList en MagickWand/mogrify.c permite a los atacantes provocar una denegación de servicio (fallo de aserción y salida de la aplicación en ReplaceImageInList) 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.
