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.

An exploitable out of bounds write exists in the handling of compressed TIFF images in ImageMagicks's convert utility. A crafted TIFF document can lead to an out of bounds write which in particular circumstances could be leveraged into remote code execution. The vulnerability can be triggered through any user controlled TIFF that is handled by this functionality.
