Descriptions
In ImageMagick 7.0.8-3 Q16, ReadBMPImage and WriteBMPImage in coders/bmp.c allow attackers to cause an out of bounds write via a crafted file.
En ImageMagick 7.0.8-3 Q16, ReadBMPImage y WriteBMPImage en coders/bmp.c permiten que los atacantes provoquen una escritura fuera de límites 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.
