  "details" : [ "ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41, an extremely large image profile could result in a heap overflow when encoding a PNG image. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41.", "A flaw was found in ImageMagick, a free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing an extremely large image profile when encoding a PNG image. This could result in a heap overflow, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS), which makes the affected system or application unavailable to legitimate users." ],
  "statement" : "This MODERATE impact vulnerability in ImageMagick affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 ELS and 7 ELS. A heap overflow can occur when processing an extremely large image profile during PNG encoding. Exploitation requires an attacker to provide a specially crafted image file for processing.",
