Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in MolotovCherry Android-ImageMagick7.This issue affects Android-ImageMagick7: before 7.1.2-11.
AnalysisAI
This vulnerability is a memory leak (CWE-401) in Android-ImageMagick7, a port of ImageMagick for Android, that allows remote attackers to cause denial of service by exhausting memory resources. The issue affects all versions of MolotovCherry Android-ImageMagick7 prior to version 7.1.2-11. With a CVSS score of 7.5 and a network-based attack vector requiring no privileges or user interaction (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), attackers can remotely trigger high-impact availability disruption, though there is no current evidence of active exploitation or public proof-of-concept.
Technical ContextAI
Android-ImageMagick7 is a native Android port of the ImageMagick image processing library, providing comprehensive image manipulation capabilities for Android applications. The affected component (cpe:2.3:a:molotovcherry:android-imagemagick7) suffers from CWE-401 (Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime), commonly known as a memory leak. This occurs when the application allocates memory during image processing operations but fails to properly release it after the memory is no longer needed. Over time or through repeated requests, this leads to progressive memory exhaustion, degrading performance and eventually causing application crashes or system instability. The vulnerability likely exists in the native C/C++ code layer where ImageMagick's core processing occurs, as memory management in native code requires explicit deallocation that was evidently omitted or incorrectly implemented in affected code paths.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Android-ImageMagick7 to version 7.1.2-11 or later to resolve the memory leak vulnerability. The patch is available via the vendor's GitHub repository at https://github.com/MolotovCherry/Android-ImageMagick7/pull/191 and should be integrated into affected Android applications through dependency updates. Organizations should review their Android application dependencies and update the Android-ImageMagick7 library to the patched version, then rebuild and redeploy affected applications. As an interim mitigation until patching is complete, consider implementing rate limiting on image processing endpoints, enforcing strict file size limits for uploaded images, monitoring memory usage with automated alerting for abnormal consumption patterns, and implementing automatic service restarts when memory thresholds are reached to minimize service disruption. Additionally, restrict image processing functionality to authenticated users only if feasible, reducing the attack surface from anonymous network-based attackers.
