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

How to fix?

Upgrade ImageMagick/ImageMagick to version 6.7.6-3 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read. 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.
