+ <title>GraphicsMagick: PALM and DCM buffer overflows</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ GraphicsMagick improperly handles PALM and DCM images, potentially
+ resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ GraphicsMagick is a collection of tools and libraries which support
+ reading, writing, and manipulating images in many major formats.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ M. Joonas Pihlaja has reported that a boundary error exists within the
+ ReadDCMImage() function of coders/dcm.c, causing the improper handling
+ of DCM images. Pihlaja also reported that there are several boundary
+ errors in the ReadPALMImage() function of coders/palm.c, similarly
+ causing the improper handling of PALM images.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted DCM or PALM
+ image with GraphicsMagick, and possibly execute arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the user running GraphicsMagick.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All GraphicsMagick users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-gfx/graphicsmagick-1.1.7-r3"</code>
