CVE-2017-14172 is fixed in 21 products on 1 platform, first by imagemagick 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6.2, released May 31, 2018. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2017-14172 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: n/a (Low) - EPSS: 0.0219 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Sep 6, 2017 ## Description In coders/ps.c in ImageMagick 7.0.7-0 Q16, a DoS in ReadPSImage() due to lack of an EOF (End of File) check might cause huge CPU consumption. When a crafted PSD file, which claims a large "extent" field in the header but does not contain sufficient backing data, is provided, the loop over "length" would consume huge CPU resources, since there is no EOF check inside the loop. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | imagemagick Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS (bionic) |
