Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS). Heap-based buffer overflow in the ReadPNMImage function in pnm.c for ImageMagick 6.2.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a PNM file with a small colors value.
