It can read, convert and write images in a large variety of formats". Remote exploitation of a heap overflow vulnerability in ImageMagick could allow execution of arbitrary code or cause denial of service. DETAILS A heap overflow exists in ReadSGIImage() function, that is used to decode a SGI image files. The vulnerable code is: coders/sgi.c: static Image *ReadSGIImage(const ImageInfo *image_info,ExceptionInfo *exception) { .. iris_info.bytes_per_pixel=(unsigned char) ReadBlobByte(image); .. image->columns=iris_info.columns; image->rows=iris_info.rows; .. bytes_per_pixel=(size_t) iris_info.bytes_per_pixel; number_pixels=(MagickSizeType) iris_info.columns*iris_info.rows; .. iris_pixels=(unsigned char *)AcquireMagickMemory(4*bytes_per_pixel*iris_info.columns*iris_info.rows); We can manipulate with iris_info.rows, iris_info.columns and bytes_per_pixel value. Allocation of memory to "iris_pixels" is based on this values. When rows*cols*bytes_per_pixe*4 overflow integer variable, we can alloc not enough memory for next operations, and cause heap overflow. Proof of Concept: Example crafted SGI file: <http://overflow.pl/poc/imheap.sgi> http://overflow.pl/poc/imheap.sgi [pucik@overflow ImageMagick-6.2.8]$ display imheap.sgi *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x08055dd0 *** Abort (core dumped) [pucik@overflow ImageMagick-6.2.8]$ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The information has been provided by <mailto:pucik@overflow.pl> Damian Put.
