Plain English Summary

AI-powered analysis for quick understanding

This vulnerability allows an attacker to potentially overwrite memory by manipulating the way ImageMagick handles extremely large images, which could lead to crashes or execution of malicious code. It affects versions before 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41, so users need to update to these versions or later to protect against this issue.

Technical Description

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41, a 32-bit unsigned integer overflow in the XWD (X Windows) encoder can cause an undersized heap buffer allocation. When writing a extremely large image an out of bounds heap write can occur. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41.
