Description

A flaw was found in ImageMagick. Processing a specially crafted TIFF file can cause a heap-based buffer overflow and result in a denial of service.

Statement

To exploit this issue, an attacker needs to convince a user to process a crafted TIFF file with ImageMagick. Additionally, this vulnerability can cause a heap-based buffer overflow, but there is no evidence of memory corruption or code execution, limiting the impact to an application crash. Due to these reasons, this flaw has been rated with a low severity.

CVSS score applicability
