NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream graphicsmagick package and not the graphicsmagick package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The AcquireCacheNexus function in magick/pixel_cache.c in GraphicsMagick before 1.3.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap overwrite) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted image file, because a pixel staging area is not used.
