USN-5855-1: ImageMagick vulnerabilities

Severity

Medium

Vendor

Canonical Ubuntu

Versions Affected

  • Canonical Ubuntu 18.04

Description

It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain PNG images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted PNG file, an attacker could use this issue to cause ImageMagick to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly obtain the contents of arbitrary files by including them into images. Update Instructions: Run `sudo pro fix USN-5855-1` to fix the vulnerability. The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: libmagick++-6.q16hdri-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickwand-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick-6.q16 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6-headers – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick-6-common – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6.q16-3-extra – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagick++-6-headers – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libimage-magick-q16-perl – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libimage-magick-perl – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagick++-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickwand-6.q16-3 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 perlmagick – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6.q16hdri-3-extra – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagick++-6.q16hdri-7 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickwand-6.q16hdri-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickwand-6.q16-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6.q16-3 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6.q16hdri-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagick++-6.q16-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick-6.q16hdri – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick-common – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6.q16-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick-doc – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 imagemagick-6-doc – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libimage-magick-q16hdri-perl – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagick++-6.q16-7 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6.q16hdri-3 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-6-arch-config – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickwand-6.q16hdri-3 – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickcore-dev – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 libmagickwand-6-headers – 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.15 No subscription required
