Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5855-3

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5855-3
Posted Apr 5, 2023
Authored by Ubuntu | Site security.ubuntu.com

Ubuntu Security Notice 5855-3 - USN-5855-2 fixed vulnerabilities in ImageMagick. Unfortunately an additional mitigation caused a regression. This update fixes the problem. 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.
