CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

ImageMagick versions prior to 6.9.13-57 and 7.x before 7.1.2-32 are vulnerable to a race condition due to improper synchronization when accessing the security policy, which can lead to a heap buffer overwrite. This vulnerability allows an attacker to induce concurrent access, potentially resulting in application crashes and denial of service. Organizations using these versions should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of service disruption.

Original NVD Description

ImageMagick before 6.9.13-57 and 7.x before 7.1.2-32 lacks proper synchronization when the security policy is accessed, so simultaneous reads and writes of the policy by multiple threads trigger a race condition that causes a heap buffer over-write. An attacker able to induce concurrent security policy access can crash the application, causing a denial of service.
