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.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Several issues have been discovered in ImageMagick, a popular set of programs and libraries for image manipulation. These issues include several problems in memory handling that can result in a denial of service attack or in execution of arbitrary code by an attacker with control on the image input.
