    Package        : imagemagick     Version        : 8:6.9.10.23+dfsg-2.1+deb10u6     CVE ID         : CVE-2023-1289 CVE-2023-5341 CVE-2023-34151

    Imagemagick a graphical software suite for displaying, creating and     modifying images was vulnerable.

    CVE-2023-1289

        A vulnerability was discovered         in ImageMagick where a specially created SVG file         loads itself and causes a segmentation fault.
        This flaw allows a remote attacker to pass a         specially crafted SVG file that leads to a segmentation         fault, generating many trash files in /tmp, resulting in         a denial of service. When ImageMagick crashes, it generates         a lot of trash files. These trash files can be large if the         SVG file contains many render actions.

    CVE-2023-5341

        A heap use-after-free flaw was found in coders/bmp.c

    CVE-2023-34151

        A vulnerability was found in ImageMagick,         due to undefined behaviors of casting double to size_t in         svg, mvg and other coders

    Moreover a few potential security problems were fixed in the     TIFF coders like for instance memory leaks. These issues were     unfortunatly CVE less. CVE-2023-39978 (a deny of service)     was also fixed by being introduced by partial fixes     of these problems.

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     8:6.9.10.23+dfsg-2.1+deb10u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.
