Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • HTTP DoS
    An attacker performs flooding at the HTTP level to bring down only a particular web application rather than anything listening on a TCP/IP connection. This denial of service attack requires substantially fewer packets to be sent which makes DoS harder to detect. This is an equivalent of SYN flood in HTTP. The idea is to keep the HTTP session alive indefinitely and then repeat that hundreds of times. This attack targets resource depletion weaknesses in web server software. The web server will wait to attacker's responses on the initiated HTTP sessions while the connection threads are being exhausted.

    descriptionMemory information disclosure in DescribeImage function in magick/describe.c GraphicsMagick is vulnerable to a memory information disclosure vulnerability found in the DescribeImage function of the magick/describe.c file, because of a heap-based buffer over-read. The portion of the code containing the vulnerability is responsible for printing the IPTC Profile information contained in the image. This vulnerability can be triggered with a specially crafted MIFF file. There is an out-of-bounds buffer dereference because certain increments are never checked. (CVE-2017-16353 ) GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has double free vulnerabilities in the ReadOneJNGImage() function in coders/png.c (CVE-2017-11139) In GraphicsMagick there is a stack-based buffer over-read in WriteWEBPImage in coders/webp.c, related to an incompatibility with libwebp versions, 0.5.0 and later, that use a different structure type. (CVE-2017-17913) In GraphicsMagick 1.3.27, there is an infinite loop and application hang in the ReadBMPImage function (coders/bmp.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via an image file with a crafted bit-field mask value. (CVE-2018-5685) The ReadJPEGImage function in coders/jpeg.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 creates a pixel cache before a successful read of a scanline, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via crafted JPEG files. (CVE-2017-11140) In GraphicsMagick 1.3.26, an allocation failure vulnerability was found in the function ReadMNGImage in coders/png.c when a small MNG file has a MEND chunk with a large length value. (CVE-2017-13147) GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a heap overflow in the WriteCMYKImage() function in coders/cmyk.c when processing multiple frames that have non-identical widths. (CVE-2017-11643) GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a Memory Leak in the PersistCache function in magick/pixel_cache.c during writing of Magick Persistent Cache (MPC) files. (CVE-2017-11641) In GraphicsMagick there is a heap-based buffer over-read in ReadMNGImage in coders/png.c, related to accessing one byte before testing whether a limit has been reached. (CVE-2017-17915) In GraphicsMagick 1.3.27a, there is a buffer over-read in ReadPALMImage in coders/palm.c when QuantumDepth is 8. (CVE-2017-17783) In GraphicsMagick 1.3.27a, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in ReadOneJNGImage in coders/png.c, related to oFFs chunk allocation. (CVE-2017-17782) coders/wpg.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file, related to the AcquireCacheNexus function in magick/pixel_cache.c. (CVE-2017-16669) In GraphicsMagick there is a heap-based buffer over-read in ReadNewsProfile in coders/tiff.c, in which LocaleNCompare reads heap data beyond the allocated region. (CVE-2017-17912) The ReadOneJNGImage function in coders/png.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) during JNG reading via a zero-length color_image data structure. (CVE-2017-11102) GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a NULL pointer dereference in the WritePCLImage() function in coders/pcl.c during writes of monochrome images. (CVE-2017-11637) GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a heap overflow in the WriteRGBImage() function in coders/rgb.c when processing multiple frames that have non-identical widths. (CVE-2017-11636)

    descriptionThis update for GraphicsMagick fixes the following issues : - security update (core) - CVE-2018-6799: The AcquireCacheNexus function in magick/pixel_cache.c in GraphicsMagick before 1.3.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap overwrite) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted image file, because a pixel staging area is not used. [boo#1080522] - security update (png.c) - CVE-2018-9018: In GraphicsMagick 1.3.28, there is a divide-by-zero in the ReadMNGImage function of coders/png.c. Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a crash and denial of service via a crafted mng file. [boo#1086773] - security update (gif.c) - CVE-2017-18254: An issue was discovered in ImageMagick 7.0.7. A memory leak vulnerability was found in the function WriteGIFImage in coders/gif.c, which allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file. [boo#1087027] - security update (pcd.c) - CVE-2017-18251: An issue was discovered in ImageMagick 7.0.7.

An allocation failure vulnerability was found in the function ReadTIFFImage in coders/tiff.c, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file, because file size is not properly used to restrict scanline, strip, and tile allocations. [boo#1085236] - CVE-2017-11641: GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a Memory Leak in the PersistCache function in magick/pixel_cache.c during writing of Magick Persistent Cache (MPC) files.[boo#1050623] - CVE-2017-13066: GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a memory leak vulnerability in the function CloneImage in magick/image.c.
