DescriptionGitHub Advisory

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, a heap information disclosure vulnerability exists in ImageMagick's PSD (Adobe Photoshop) format handler. When processing a maliciously crafted PSD file containing ZIP-compressed layer data that decompresses to less than the expected size, uninitialized heap memory is leaked into the output image. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.

AnalysisAI

Heap memory disclosure in ImageMagick's PSD file parser allows unauthenticated remote attackers to leak sensitive information from process memory by crafting malicious Photoshop files with improperly compressed layer data. Affected versions prior to 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 fail to properly validate decompressed data sizes, exposing uninitialized heap contents in generated output images. No patch is currently available for this vulnerability.
