Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in MolotovCherry Android-ImageMagick7.This issue affects Android-ImageMagick7: before 7.1.2-11.
AnalysisAI
Memory leaks in MolotovCherry Android-ImageMagick7 versions prior to 7.1.2-11 allow remote attackers to cause denial of service by exhausting available memory without authentication. The vulnerability stems from improper memory management that fails to release resources after use, potentially crashing applications or rendering devices unresponsive.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability affects Android-ImageMagick7 (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:molotovcherry:android-imagemagick7), which is a port of the ImageMagick image manipulation library for Android platforms. The root cause is classified as CWE-401 (Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime), commonly known as a memory leak. In this class of vulnerability, the application allocates memory during image processing operations but fails to deallocate it when the memory is no longer needed, causing progressive memory exhaustion. Over repeated operations or when processing specially crafted image files, this can lead to resource depletion and application crashes. ImageMagick libraries handle numerous complex image formats and transformations, making proper memory management critical for stability and security.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Android-ImageMagick7 to version 7.1.2-11 or later, which contains the fix for this memory leak vulnerability. The patch is available through GitHub pull request #191 at https://github.com/MolotovCherry/Android-ImageMagick7/pull/191. Organizations should review this pull request for implementation details and apply the update through their dependency management system. Until patching is completed, consider implementing temporary mitigations such as resource limits and monitoring for abnormal memory consumption in applications using this library, restarting services periodically to clear leaked memory, and restricting image processing to trusted sources only. For production environments, prioritize testing the patched version in staging before deployment to ensure compatibility with existing image processing workflows.
