CWE-252  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 imagemagick to version 8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u6 or higher.

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:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The ReadGROUP4Image function in coders/tiff.c in ImageMagick before 7.0.1-10 does not check the return value of the fputc function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted image file.
