MediumMetricsAV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
ImageMagick version 6.8.9.9
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted image file. This is related to the ReadRLEImage function in coders/rle.c.
Recommendations
For ImageMagick version 6.8.9.9, consider updating to a newer version to mitigate the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of the ReadRLEImage function in coders/rle.c to minimize the risk of denial of service attacks.
