CVE-2012-0259  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-125  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable imagemagick to version 8:6.7.4.0-4 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:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

The GetEXIFProperty function in magick/property.c in ImageMagick before 6.7.6-3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a zero value in the component count of an EXIF XResolution tag in a JPEG file, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
