CVE-2017-14138

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ImageMagick version 7.0.6-5

Description The issue is related to a memory leak in the ReadWEBPImage function in coders/webp.c. This occurs because memory is not freed in certain error cases, such as VP8 errors. The vulnerability can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a memory leak.

Recommendations For ImageMagick version 7.0.6-5, consider disabling the ReadWEBPImage function in coders/webp.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the coders/webp.c module to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
