The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow error within the "XMakeImage()" function in magick/xwindow.c. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via e.g. a specially crafted TIFF file. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 6.5.2-8. Prior versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 6.5.2-9.
