Ubuntu Security Notice 5974-1 - It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly performing bounds checks when processing TGA image files, which could lead to a heap buffer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted TGA image file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly validating bits per pixel data when processing DIB image files. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted DIB image file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5974-1
March 27, 2023
graphicsmagick vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 ESM
- Ubuntu 14.04 ESM
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in GraphicsMagick.
Software Description:
- graphicsmagick: collection of image processing tools
Details:
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly performing bounds
checks when processing TGA image files, which could lead to a heap buffer
overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a
specially crafted TGA image file, an attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue
only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-20184)
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly validating bits per
pixel data when processing DIB image files. If a user or automated system
were tricked into processing a specially crafted DIB image file, an
attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM.
(CVE-2018-20189)
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly processing
bit-field mask values in BMP image files, which could result in the
execution of an infinite loop. If a user or automated system were tricked
into processing a specially crafted BMP image file, an attacker could
possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only
affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-5685)
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly validating data
used in arithmetic operations when processing MNG image files, which
could result in a divide-by-zero error. If a user or automated system were
tricked into processing a specially crafted MNG image file, an attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue
only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-9018)
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly performing bounds
checks when processing MIFF image files, which could lead to a heap buffer
overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a
specially crafted MIFF image file, an attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause a denial of service or expose sensitive information. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM.
(CVE-2019-11006)
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick did not properly magnify certain
MNG image files, which could lead to a heap buffer overflow. If a user or
automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted MNG
image file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial
of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu
20.04 LTS. (CVE-2020-12672)
It was discovered that GraphicsMagick was not properly performing bounds
checks when parsing certain MIFF image files, which could lead to a heap
buffer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into
processing a specially crafted MIFF image file, an attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2022-1270)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS:
graphicsmagick 1.4+really1.3.35-1ubuntu0.1
libgraphicsmagick-q16-3 1.4+really1.3.35-1ubuntu0.1
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS:
graphicsmagick 1.3.28-2ubuntu0.2+esm1
libgraphicsmagick-q16-3 1.3.28-2ubuntu0.2+esm1
Ubuntu 16.04 ESM:
graphicsmagick 1.3.23-1ubuntu0.6+esm2
libgraphicsmagick-q16-3 1.3.23-1ubuntu0.6+esm2
Ubuntu 14.04 ESM:
graphicsmagick 1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm8
libgraphicsmagick3 1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm8
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
