Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Memory corruption
EUVDB-ID: #VU11809
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 3.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14314
CWE-ID:
CWE-119 - Memory corruption
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on th etarget system.
The weakness exists in the DrawImage function in magick/render.c due to off-by-one error. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file, trigger heap-based buffer over-read and cause the service to crash.
Install update from vendor's website.
Vulnerable software versionsGraphicsMagick: 1.3.26

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Heap-based buffer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU11814
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-16352
CWE-ID:
CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists in the "Display visual image directory" feature of the DescribeImage() function of the magick/describe.c file due to heap-based buffer overflow. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted MIFF format file with the verbose flag, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

3) Memory corruption
EUVDB-ID: #VU11815
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 3.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-16353
CWE-ID:
CWE-119 - Memory corruption
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.
The weakness exists in the DescribeImage function of the magick/describe.c file due to heap-based buffer over-read because the portion of the code containing the vulnerability is responsible for printing the IPTC Profile information contained in the image and out-of-bounds buffer dereference because certain increments are never checked. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted MIFF file and gain access to potentially sensitive information.
