Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2020-10-26 19:59:07 UTC 
In ImageMagick, there is a heap-buffer-over-flow at coders/palm.c:956:21 in WritePALMImage.

Reference:
https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/issues/1714

Comment 1 Todd Cullum 2020-10-28 20:57:00 UTC 
Flaw summary:

The PALM image coder at coders/palm.c makes an improper call to AcquireQuantumMemory() in routine WritePALMImage() because it needs to be offset by 256. This can cause a out-of-bounds read later on in the routine. The patch adds 256 to bytes_per_row in the call to AcquireQuantumMemory(). This could cause impact to reliability.

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 .
