Description

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41, a heap-use-after-free vulnerability exists in the MSL encoder, where a cloned image is destroyed twice. The MSL coder does not support writing MSL so the write capability has been removed. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41.

Analysis

ImageMagick versions prior to 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41 contain a heap-use-after-free vulnerability in the MSL encoder that can be triggered by local attackers to cause denial of service through double-free conditions on cloned images. The vulnerability requires local access with no special privileges or user interaction, resulting in application crashes or potential memory corruption. …
