How to fix?

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:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in the BMP coder in ImageMagick before 7.0.2-10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted height and width values, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.
