ImageMagick < 6.9.13-27 / 7.0 < 7.1.2-1 Multiple Vulnerabilities (GHSA-qp29-wxp5-wh82 / GHSA-6hgw-6x87-578x)

high Nessus Plugin ID 258077

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host has a version of ImageMagick installed that is prior to 6.9.13-27, 7.0 prior to 7.1.2-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in GHSA-qp29-wxp5-wh82 / GHSA-6hgw-6x87-578x advisory.

- ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 6.9.13-27 and 7.1.2-1, the magnified size calculations in ReadOneMNGIMage (in coders/png.c) are unsafe and can overflow, leading to memory corruption. This issue has been patched in versions 6.9.13-27 and 7.1.2-1. (CVE-2025-55154)

- ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 6.9.13-27 and 7.1.2-1, there is undefined behavior (function-type-mismatch) in splay tree cloning callback. This results in a deterministic abort under UBSan (DoS in sanitizer builds), with no crash in a non-sanitized build. This issue has been patched in versions 6.9.13-27 and 7.1.2-1. (CVE-2025-55160)

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

Solution

Upgrade to ImageMagick version 6.9.13-27, 7.1.2-1 or later.
