CVE-2018-6405

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ImageMagick versions prior to 7.0.7-23

Description The issue is related to a memory leak in the ReadDCMImage function. This function is located in coders/dcm.c. The memory leak occurs because the redmap, greenmap, and bluemap variables can be overwritten by new pointers, causing the previous pointers to be lost. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service.

Recommendations For versions prior to 7.0.7-23, update to version 7.0.7-23 or later to resolve the issue.
