+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #217558 +++ Description of problem: Debian team issued an ImageMagick update DSA-1213-1 where they reportedly fixed an issue in SGI image handling routine. See their Changelog entry: * Fix insufficient boundary checks in SGIDecode() (discovered by Daniel Kobras) And excerpt from their advisory: Daniel Kobras discovered that Imagemagick is vulnerable to buffer overflows in the module for SGI images. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL2.1-RHEL4, FC5, FC6 Additional info: I attach relevant part of the debian patch. Please have a look at it. -- Additional comment from lkundrak on 2006-11-28 11:57 EST -- Created an attachment (id=142305) Part that fixes CVE-2006-5868 issue, from debian
Upstream's revision 4399 (which went into 6.2.9) changes SGIDecode quite radically, possibly to address the issue. I wish they learned to write commit messages. I mailed the upstream to get some more clue...
Upstream states that the flaw was corrected in 6.2.9.1.
Please close if ImageMagick-6.2.8.0-4.fc6 fixes this, otherwise push the fix. I think rebasing would be the best thing to do here.
