CVE-2017-8354

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 ReadBMPImage function in bmp.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. An attacker, acting remotely, can exploit this issue by using a specially formed file, leading to a denial of service.
Recommendations For ImageMagick version 7.0.5-5, consider disabling the ReadBMPImage function in bmp.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the bmp.c module to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the ReadBMPImage function with untrusted files until the issue is resolved.
