{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2017-16353","details":"GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 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.","modified":"2026-04-22T12:10:11.490721Z","published":"2017-11-01T15:29:00Z","related":["USN-4232-1"],"upstream":["CVE-2017-16353"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2017-16353"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"http://hg.graphicsmagick.org/hg/GraphicsMagick?cmd=changeset;node=e4e1c2a581d8"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/3494"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-4232-1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2017-16353"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"graphicsmagick","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/graphicsmagick@1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4?arch=source&distro=trusty/esm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"}]}],"versions":["1.3.16-1.1ubuntu2","1.3.16-1.1ubuntu3","1.3.18-1ubuntu3","1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1","1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm1","1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm2","1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"graphicsmagick","binary_version":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"},{"binary_name":"graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat","binary_version":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"},{"binary_name":"graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat","binary_version":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"},{"binary_name":"libgraphics-magick-perl","binary_version":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"},{"binary_name":"libgraphicsmagick++3","binary_version":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"},{"binary_name":"libgraphicsmagick3","binary_version":"1.3.18-1ubuntu3.1+esm4"}],"availability":"Available with Ubuntu Pro (Infra-only): https://ubuntu.com/pro"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2017/UBUNTU-CVE-2017-16353.json"}},{"package":{"name":"graphicsmagick","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/graphicsmagick@1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"}]}],"versions":["1.3.21-3","1.3.23-1","1.3.23-1build1","1.3.23-1ubuntu0.1","1.3.23-1ubuntu0.2","1.3.23-1ubuntu0.3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"graphicsmagick","binary_version":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat","binary_version":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat","binary_version":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"libgraphics-magick-perl","binary_version":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"libgraphicsmagick++-q16-12","binary_version":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"libgraphicsmagick-q16-3","binary_version":"1.3.23-1ubuntu0.4"}],"availability":"No subscription required"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2017/UBUNTU-CVE-2017-16353.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
