Summary
ImageMagick versions before 7.1.0-49 are susceptible to an information disclosure issue when handling PNG images. Specifically, during the processing of these images, unintended content from arbitrary files may be exposed if the magick binary has appropriate read permissions. This creates a risk for sensitive data leakage, necessitating immediate verification and potential updates to secured environments.
Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
