| Vector | AV: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 ReadDCMImage function in dcm.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 allow 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 ReadDCMImage function in dcm.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the dcm.c module to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the ReadDCMImage function with untrusted files until the issue is resolved.
Fix
DoS
Buffer Overflow
Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime
