CVE-2017-8357

CVSS v3.1

6.5

Medium

VectorAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ImageMagick version 7.0.5-5
Description The issue is related to the ReadEPTImage function in ept.c, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak) via a crafted file. This is due to a buffer overflow in memory. Exploitation of the issue may enable a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (loss of memory access) using a specially crafted file.
Recommendations For ImageMagick version 7.0.5-5, consider disabling the ReadEPTImage function in ept.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to crafted files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
