Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ImageMagick versions 7.0.6-1

Description The issue is related to insufficient input validation, specifically a missing NULL check, in the ReadMATImage function in coders/mat.c. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, resulting in an "Assertion failure" error when the DestroyImageInfo function in image.c is executed.

Recommendations For ImageMagick version 7.0.6-1, consider disabling the ReadMATImage function in coders/mat.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the DestroyImageInfo function in image.c to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
