Imagemagick · Imagemagick · CVE-2016-10056
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
ImageMagick versions prior to 6.9.5-8
**Description**
The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the `sixel decode` function, which can be exploited by remote attackers using a crafted file. This can cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash, and may have other unspecified impacts.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 6.9.5-8, update to version 6.9.5-8 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the `sixel decode` function in the `coders/sixel.c` file until a patch is applied.
