Last modified

CVE-2006-5456 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple buffer overflows in GraphicsMagick before 1.1.7 and ImageMagick 6.0.7 allow user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via (1) a DCM image that is not properly handled by the ReadDCMImage function in coders/dcm.c, or (2) a PALM image that is not properly handled by the ReadPALMImage function in coders/palm.c.. EPSS estimates a 3.48% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
