- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4339-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Bastien Roucaris October 19, 2025 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

Package : imagemagick Version : 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.3+deb11u7 CVE ID : CVE-2025-62171 Debian Bug : 1118340

An Integer Overflow was found in BMP Decoder (ReadBMP).

CVE-2025-57803 fix claims to patch this problem, but the fix is incomplete and ineffective in some cases.

The patch added BMPOverflowCheck() but placed it after the overflow occurs.
A malicious 58-byte BMP file can trigger AddressSanitizer crashes and DoS.

This new issue was affected CVE-2025-62171.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.3+deb11u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.
