Multiple security vulnerabilities have been found in the ImageMagick utilities bundled with Solaris 9 and Solaris 10. These vulnerabilities may allow a local or remote user who provides files that are processed by ImageMagick to execute arbitrary shell commands or code as the user running ImageMagick, or to cause ImageMagick to crash, which is a type of Denial of Service (DoS).
These issues are also referenced in the following documents:
CVE-2005-4601 at http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-4601
CVE-2006-0082 at http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-0082
CVE-2004-0827 at http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2004-0827
2. Contributing Factors
These issues can occur in the following releases:
- Solaris 9 without patch 137038-01
- Solaris 10 without patch 136882-01
- Solaris 9 without patch 137039-01
- Solaris 10 without patch 136883-01
Note: Solaris 8 does not include support for ImageMagick and is not impacted by these issues. Solaris 8 and Solaris 10 are not affected by bug 5106135, which only affects Solaris 9.
There are no predictable symptoms that would indicate the described issues have been exploited to execute arbitrary code or shell commands. If these issues are exploited to cause a Denial of Service (DoS), the ImageMagick process may crash.
There is no work around for these issues. Please see the Resolution section below.
These issues are addressed in the following releases:
- Solaris 9 with patch 137038-01 or later
- Solaris 10 with patch 136882-01 or later
- Solaris 9 with patch 137039-01 or later
- Solaris 10 with patch 136883-01 or later
