Fedora Core 5 2006-929: ImageMagick |
||
Check for the version of the ImageMagick package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory FEDORA-2006-929 (ImageMagick). ImageMagick(TM) is an image display and manipulation tool for the X Window System. ImageMagick can read and write JPEG, TIFF, PNM, GIF, and Photo CD image formats. It can resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image, and when finished you can either save the completed work in the original format or a different one. ImageMagick also includes command line programs for creating animated or transparent .gifs, creating composite images, creating thumbnail images, and more. ImageMagick is one of your choices if you need a program to manipulate and dis play images. If you want to develop your own applications which use ImageMagick code or APIs, you need to install ImageMagick-devel as well. Update Information: ImageMagick(TM) is an image display and manipulation tool for the X Window System that can read and write multiple image formats. Tavis Ormandy discovered several integer and buffer overflow flaws in the way ImageMagick decodes XCF, SGI, and Sun bitmap graphic files. A possible hacker could execute arbitrary code on a victim's machine if they were able to trick the victim into opening a specially crafted image file. (CVE-2006-3743, CVE-2006-4144) Users of ImageMagick should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches and are not vulnerable to these issues.
