Technical description

ImageMagick before 7.1.2-31 and before 6.9.13-56 contains a NULL pointer dereference in the PNM coder. When the coder reaches a memory (resource) limit at a specific point during processing, the failed allocation is not handled and a NULL pointer is dereferenced, which can lead to a denial of service (application crash) when processing a specially crafted or sufficiently large PNM image.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from imagemagick. Update imagemagick to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
