high Nessus Plugin ID 163467

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5534-1 advisory.

- A vulnerability was found in ImageMagick, causing an outside the range of representable values of type 'unsigned char' at coders/psd.c, when crafted or untrusted input is processed. This leads to a negative impact to application availability or other problems related to undefined behavior. (CVE-2022-32545)

- A vulnerability was found in ImageMagick, causing an outside the range of representable values of type 'unsigned long' at coders/pcl.c, when crafted or untrusted input is processed. This leads to a negative impact to application availability or other problems related to undefined behavior. (CVE-2022-32546)

- In ImageMagick, there is load of misaligned address for type 'double', which requires 8 byte alignment and for type 'float', which requires 4 byte alignment at MagickCore/property.c. Whenever crafted or untrusted input is processed by ImageMagick, this causes a negative impact to application availability or other problems related to undefined behavior. (CVE-2022-32547)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution
