Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Path traversal
EUVDB-ID: #VU26485
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12921
CWE-ID:
CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within TranslateTextEx component for processing SVG images in GraphicsMagick. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted SVG file and read contents of arbitrary files on the system.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
Opensuse: 15.1

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. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.
2) Integer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU26484
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10938
CWE-ID:
CWE-190 - Integer overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the HuffmanDecodeImage in "magick/compress.c" file. A remote attacker can trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system, leading to heap-based buffer overflow.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
