Descriptions
WriteEPTImage in coders/ept.c in ImageMagick 7.0.7-25 Q16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (MagickCore/memory.c double free and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
La función WriteEPTImage en coders/ept.c en ImageMagick 7.0.7-25 Q16 permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (doble liberación en MagickCore/memory.c y cierre inesperado de la aplicación) o, probablemente, provocar cualquier otro tipo de problema 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.
