Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50442
Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu 4.10 USN-7-1 (imagemagick)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to imagemagick announced via advisory USN-7-1. A buffer overflow in imagemagick's EXIF parsing routine has been discovered in imagemagick versions prior to 6.1.0. Trying to query EXIF information of a malicious image file might result in execution of arbitrary code with the user's privileges. Since imagemagick can be used in custom printing systems, this also might lead to privilege escalation (execute code with the printer spooler's privileges). However, Ubuntu's standard printing system does not use imagemagick, thus there is no risk of privilege escalation in a standard installation. The following packages are affected: libmagick6 Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 5:6.0.2.5-1ubuntu1.1. In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2004-October/000011.html Risk factor : High
