NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream imagemagick package and not the imagemagick package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in the Get8BIMProperty function in MagickCore/property.c in ImageMagick before 6.9.5-4 and 7.x before 7.0.2-6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read, memory leak, and crash) via a crafted image.
