Alpine Linux: imagemagick fixed in 7.1.2.24-r0
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in ImageMagick affects Alpine Linux package versions prior to 7.1.2.24-r0, where improper input validation allows remote attackers to trigger high availability impact without authentication or user interaction. The flaw is tracked under upstream advisory GHSA-8pj9-6897-74xc and was disclosed via Alpine's security tracking. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the target system to run an Alpine imagemagick build earlier than 7.1.2.24-r0 and to expose ImageMagick to attacker-controlled image input - typically an HTTP endpoint that accepts uploads and invokes convert/identify/MagickWand, or a backend job that fetches and processes remote images. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H scores 7.5 (High) and indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated availability-only impact - consistent with a DoS via crafted image upload. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker uploads a maliciously crafted image to any public-facing endpoint that hands the file off to ImageMagick for thumbnailing, conversion, or metadata extraction (avatars, document uploads, CMS media libraries). When ImageMagick parses the file it hits the input-validation defect and consumes excessive resources or crashes the worker, taking the conversion pipeline offline; repeated submissions degrade or deny the service to legitimate users. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade the Alpine imagemagick package to 7.1.2.24-r0 or later using apk (for example, apk update && apk upgrade imagemagick), which is the vendor-released patch for Alpine. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
