NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream GraphicsMagick-doc package and not the GraphicsMagick-doc package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2018.03 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer underflow in the parse8BIM function in coders/meta.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.25 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted 8BIM chunk, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
