Executive brief
ImageMagick is a software suite used for creating, editing, and converting images. A vulnerability exists where processing a specially crafted image or command can cause the application to crash. This could lead to a temporary service outage or disruption of automated image processing workflows.
Technical details
An out-of-bounds access vulnerability exists in ImageMagick's ConnectedComponentsImage() function. The issue is triggered when the 'connected-components:*' define specifies an invalid index, leading to an access violation (CWE-125, CWE-787). An attacker can exploit this by providing a malicious image or command-line argument that requires user interaction to process. This results in a denial-of-service (application crash). The vulnerability is addressed in Magick.NET version 14.12.0.
