Unity Linux 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: ImageMagick (UTSA-2026-017515)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 313764

Synopsis

The Unity Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-017515 advisory.

In ParseMetaGeometry() of MagickCore/geometry.c, image height and width calculations can lead to divide- by-zero conditions which also lead to undefined behavior. This flaw can be triggered by a crafted input file processed by ImageMagick and could impact application availability. The patch uses multiplication in addition to the function `PerceptibleReciprocal()` in order to prevent such divide-by-zero conditions.
This flaw affects ImageMagick versions prior to 7.0.9-0.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected ImageMagick package.
