DescriptionCVE.org

ImageMagick before 7.1.2-19 contains an out-of-bounds access vulnerability in ConnectedComponentsImage() when processing connected-components artifacts with invalid indices. Attackers can trigger access violations by specifying malformed connected-components definitions via CLI, causing denial of service or potential code execution.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds read in ImageMagick's ConnectedComponentsImage() function allows local attackers to trigger access violations by supplying malformed connected-components artifact definitions via the CLI, leading to denial of service or potential arbitrary code execution. All ImageMagick releases before 7.1.2-19 are affected, as are Magick.NET NuGet packages before 14.12.0. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, but the RCE and information-disclosure tags warrant attention in environments that process untrusted image inputs through automated pipelines.

Technical ContextAI

ImageMagick's connected-components image processing feature exposes user-controllable artifact definitions via the CLI flag pattern connected-components:*. The ConnectedComponentsImage() function fails to validate that artifact-specified indices fall within the bounds of the underlying data structure, producing a CWE-125 (Out-of-bounds Read) condition. When an invalid index is supplied, the function reads memory beyond the allocated buffer, which at minimum causes an access violation and process crash. Because out-of-bounds reads can in certain memory layouts yield exploitable conditions, the vendor and VulnCheck tag this as potentially reaching remote code execution, though the CVSS 4.0 vector conservatively scores only low availability impact. Affected CPEs cover the full ImageMagick application line (cpe:2.3:a:imagemagick:imagemagick:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) and the corresponding Magick.NET NuGet wrappers across Q16, Q16-HDRI, and ARM64 variants.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade ImageMagick to 7.1.2-19 or later. For .NET consumers, upgrade all affected Magick.NET NuGet packages (Magick.NET-Q16-AnyCPU, Magick.NET-Q16-HDRI-AnyCPU, Magick.NET-Q16-HDRI-OpenMP-arm64, Magick.NET-Q16-HDRI-arm64) to version 14.12.0 or later. Consult the official advisory at https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/security/advisories/GHSA-pmpg-6pww-fg6q for confirmation. As a compensating control prior to patching, restrict the ability of untrusted users or external input to supply connected-components:* artifact definitions via CLI; in pipeline contexts, sanitize or reject image inputs that include define directives before passing them to ImageMagick. Note that this workaround may break legitimate connected-components workflows and is not a substitute for the upstream fix.
