Descriptions

ReadXWDImage in coders/xwd.c in the XWD image parsing component of ImageMagick 7.0.8-41 Q16 allows attackers to cause a denial-of-service (divide-by-zero error) by crafting an XWD image file in which the header indicates neither LSB first nor MSB first.

ReadXWDImage en coders/xwd.c en el componente de análisis de imágenes XWD de ImageMagick 7.0.8-41 Q16 permite a los atacantes causar una denegación de servicio (error de división por cero) al crear un archivo de imagen XWD en el que el encabezado indica ni LSB primero ni MSB primero.

ImageMagick is an image display and manipulation tool for the X Window System that can read and write multiple image formats. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, denial of service, double free, information leakage, null pointer, out of bounds read, out of bounds write, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
