CVE-2012-1610: Integer Overflow
First published: Tue Jun 05 2012(Updated: )
Integer overflow in the GetEXIFProperty function in magick/property.c in ImageMagick before 6.7.6-4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a large component count for certain EXIF tags in a JPEG image. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-0259.
