CVE-2015-8895
CVSS v3.1
7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
ImageMagick versions 6.9.1-3 and later
Description
The issue is caused by an integer overflow in the ImageMagick console graphic editor. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (application crash) by providing large input data. The vulnerability is triggered by a crafted length value that causes a buffer overflow in the coders/icon.c file.
Recommendations
For ImageMagick versions 6.9.1-3 and later, consider restricting the input data size to prevent large inputs from causing the application to crash. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the
coders/icon.c file to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.DoS
