Fixed In Version: ImageMagick 7.1.1-0
Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
A vulnerability was discovered in ImageMagick where a specially created SVG file loads itself and causes a segmentation fault. This flaw allows a remote attacker to pass a specially crafted SVG file that leads to a segmentation fault, generating many trash files in "/tmp," resulting in a denial of service. When ImageMagick crashes, it generates a lot of trash files. These trash files can be large if the SVG file contains many render actions. In a denial of service attack, if a remote attacker uploads an SVG file of size t, ImageMagick generates files of size 103*t. If an attacker uploads a 100M SVG, the server will generate about 10G.

Description Sandipan Roy 2023-03-09 14:01:17 UTC
A specially created SVG file that loads by itself and make segmentation fault. Remote attackers can take advantage of this vulnerability to cause a denial of service of the generated SVG file.

It seems that this error affects a lot of websites and causes a generating trash files in /tmp when uploading this PC file to the server.

I think it's better to check the file descriptor coming from itself before executing read().
