Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
GraphicsMagick version 1.3.26
Description
The issue is related to the ReadMNGImage function in GraphicsMagick, which mishandles large MNG images. This can lead to an invalid memory read, potentially allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. The problem is associated with a buffer overflow in dynamic memory.
Recommendations
For GraphicsMagick version 1.3.26, consider disabling the ReadMNGImage function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to large MNG images to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
