How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:7 ImageMagick-perl.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ImageMagick-perl package and not the ImageMagick-perl package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The DrawImage function in MagickCore/draw.c in ImageMagick before 6.9.4-0 and 7.x before 7.0.1-2 makes an incorrect function call in attempting to locate the next token, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
