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.

The IsPixelMonochrome function in MagickCore/pixel-accessor.h in ImageMagick 7.0.3.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via a crafted file. NOTE: the vendor says "This is a Q64 issue and we do not support Q64."
