Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6876)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists due to a stack-based buffer under-read flaw in the OLEProperty class in ole/oleprop.cpp in libfpx 1.3.1-10, used in ImageMagic. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application that creates FPX images and perform a denial of service attack.
