Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2020-10-26 19:48:51 UTC 
In ImageMagick, there is a heap-buffer-overflow at MagickCore/quantum-private.h:227:12 in PopShortPixel.

Comment 1 Todd Cullum 2020-10-28 20:40:05 UTC 
Flaw summary:

In WriteOnePNGImage() of the PNG coder at coders/png.c, an improper call to AcquireVirtualMemory() and memset() allows for an out-of-bounds write later when PopShortPixel() from MagickCore/quantum-private.h is called. The patch fixes the calls by adding 256 to rowbytes. An attacker who is able to supply a specially crafted image could affect availability with a low impact to data integrity.

Statement:

This flaw is out of support scope for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6, and 7. Inkscape is not affected because it no longer uses a bundled ImageMagick in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. For more information regarding support scopes, please see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata .
