Various vulnerabilities were discovered in graphicsmagick, a collection of image processing tools and associated libraries, resulting in denial of service, information disclosure, and a variety of buffer overflows and overreads.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 1.3.20-3+deb8u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your graphicsmagick packages.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in GraphicsMagick, a set of command-line applications to manipulate image files, which could result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if malformed image files are processed.

This update for ImageMagick fixes several issues. These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-14343: Fixed a memory leak vulnerability in     ReadXCFImage in coders/xcf.c via a crafted xcf image     file (bsc#1058422).

  - CVE-2017-12691: The ReadOneLayer function in     coders/xcf.c allowed remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (memory consumption) via a crafted file     (bsc#1058422).

  - CVE-2017-14042: Prevent memory allocation failure in the     ReadPNMImage function in coders/pnm.c. The vulnerability     caused a big memory allocation, which may have lead to     remote denial of service in the MagickRealloc function     in magick/memory.c (bsc#1056550).

  - CVE-2017-15281: ReadPSDImage in coders/psd.c allowed     remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a crafted file (bsc#1063049).

  - CVE-2017-13061: A length-validation vulnerability in the     function ReadPSDLayersInternal in coders/psd.c allowed     attackers to cause a denial of service (ReadPSDImage     memory exhaustion) via a crafted file (bsc#1055063).

  - CVE-2017-12563: A memory exhaustion vulnerability in the     function ReadPSDImage in coders/psd.c allowed attackers     to cause a denial of service (bsc#1052460).

  - CVE-2017-14174: coders/psd.c allowed for DoS in     ReadPSDLayersInternal() due to lack of an EOF (End of     File) check might have caused huge CPU consumption. When     a crafted PSD file, which claims a large 'length' field     in the header but did not contain sufficient backing     data, is provided, the loop over 'length' would consume     huge CPU resources, since there is no EOF check inside     the loop (bsc#1057723).

  - CVE-2017-13062: A memory leak vulnerability in the     function formatIPTC in coders/meta.c allowed attackers     to cause a denial of service (WriteMETAImage memory     consumption) via a crafted file (bsc#1055053).

  - CVE-2017-15277: ReadGIFImage in coders/gif.c left the     palette uninitialized when processing a GIF file that     has neither a global nor local palette. If this     functionality was used as a library loaded into a     process that operates on interesting data, this data     sometimes could have been leaked via the uninitialized     palette (bsc#1063050).

This update for GraphicsMagick fixes the following issues :

  - CVE-2017-14042: Denial of service through a large memory     allocation via specially crafted PNM images     (boo#1056550)

  - CVE-2017-14504: NULL pointer dereference via specially     crafted PNM images (boo#1059721)

  - CVE-2017-17498: Denial of service or unspecified other     impact through a heap-based buffer overflow via     specially crafted PNM images (boo#1072103)

  - CVE-2017-15277: Information leak from the application     into palette data via specially crafted GIF images     (boo#1063050)

Immediately after the previous update to graphicsmagick, two more security issues were identified. These updates are included here.

CVE-2017-13737

Incorrect rounding up resulted in scrambling the heap beyond the allocation.

CVE-2017-15277

Left the palette uninitialized when processing a GIF file that has neither a global nor local palette.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 1.3.16-1.1+deb7u11.

We recommend that you upgrade your graphicsmagick packages.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3681-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain malformed image files. If a user or     automated system using ImageMagick were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could     exploit this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the privileges of the user     invoking the program.

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

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

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in imagemagick: Various memory handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitising may result in denial of service, memory disclosure or the execution of arbitrary code if malformed GIF, TTF, SVG, TIFF, PCX, JPG or SFW files are processed.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4232-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that GraphicsMagick incorrectly handled certain image files. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to cause a denial of service or other unspecified impact.

This update fixes two vulnerabilities in ImageMagick :

CVE-2017-15277

An uninitialized data structure could lead to information disclosure when reading a specially crafted GIF file.

CVE-2017-15281

An uninitialized value used in a conditional jump could cause a denial of service (application crash) or other unspecified impacts when reading a specially crafted PSD file.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 8:6.7.7.10-5+deb7u18.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - ReadGIFImage in coders/gif.c in ImageMagick 7.0.6-1 and GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 leaves the palette     uninitialized when processing a GIF file that has neither a global nor local palette. If the affected     product is used as a library loaded into a process that operates on interesting data, this data sometimes     can be leaked via the uninitialized palette. (CVE-2017-15277)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
