    This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Imagemagick: Various memory     handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitising     may result in denial of service, memory disclosure or potentially the     execution of arbitrary code if malformed image files are processed.

    For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed     in version 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.3+deb11u3.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.6+deb12u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.

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

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

  - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in ImageMagick in versions prior to 7.0.11-14 in     ReadTIFFImage() in coders/tiff.c. This issue is due to an incorrect setting of the pixel array size, which     can lead to a crash and segmentation fault. (CVE-2021-3610)

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

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 ESM / 23.04 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6200-1 advisory.
