Description

Summary Using Magick to read a malicious SVG file resulted in a DoS attack. Details bt obtained using gdb: ``` 4 0x0000555555794c9c in ResizeMagickMemory (memory=0x7fffee203800, size=391344) at MagickCore/memory.c:1443 5 0x0000555555794e5a in ResizeQuantumMemory (memory=0x7fffee203800, count=48918, quantum=8) at MagickCore/memory.c:1508 6 0x0000555555acc8ed in SVGStartElement (context=0x517000000080, name=0x5190000055e3 "g", attributes=0x0) at coders/svg.c:1254 7 0x00007ffff6799b1c in xmlParseStartTag () at /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2 8 0x00007ffff68c7bb8 in () at /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2 9 0x00007ffff67a03f1 in xmlParseChunk () at /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2 ``` This is related to the SVGStartElement and ResizeQuantumMemory functions. PoC 1. Generate an SVG file 2. Read this file using Magick: ``` ./magick /data/ylwang/Tools/LargeScan/targets/ImageMagick/test++/1.svg null ``` 3. Causes a DoS Attack My server has a large amount of memory, causing a stack overflow to take a long time. I'll use the Windows release version as an example: ``` PS C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.2-Q8> .\magick.exe -ping 1.svg null: PS C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.2-Q8> echo $LASTEXITCODE -1073741571 ``` The error code -1073741571 indicates a crash due to a stack overflow. Impact This is a DoS vulnerability and all applications using Magick to parse SVG files are affected.
