DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in ImageMagick, which can be
exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and
potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
1) An error when parsing offset and count values within the
ResolutionUnit tag in EXIF IFD0 can be exploited to corrupt memory
via a specially crafted image.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow execution of
arbitrary code.
2) An error when parsing an IFD with IOP tag offsets pointing to the
start of the IFD can be exploited to cause an infinite loop via a
specially crafted image.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 6.7.5-1.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.7.5-1.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits Mr. Joonas Kuorilehto and Mr. Aleksis Kauppinen,
