# CVE-2005-1275: Memory corruption in n/a > Remote attackers can crash ImageMagick by providing a malicious PNM file, requiring user interaction to open the file. - **Severity:** Medium 5.0 (`AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P`) - **Exploited in the wild:** Not known - **Login needed:** Not needed - **Attackable:** Over the internet - **Victim action needed:** A user has to click or open something - **Fix available:** Yes - **Published:** 26 Apr 2005 - **Updated:** 7 Aug 2024 - **Also known as:** DEBIAN-CVE-2005-1275, GHSA-rq7w-w76q-f932, RHSA-2005:413 ## What is CVE-2005-1275? CVE-2005-1275 is a medium-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Graphicsmagick Graphicsmagick, published on 26 Apr 2005. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link. ### Official description Heap-based buffer overflow in the ReadPNMImage function in pnm.c for ImageMagick 6.2.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a PNM file with a small colors value. ## Which versions are affected by CVE-2005-1275?

What it is: CVE-2005-1275 is a medium-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Graphicsmagick Graphicsmagick, published on 26 Apr 2005. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link. Exploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2005-1275 exists. Affected product: Graphicsmagick Graphicsmagick. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page. Task: 1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies. 2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it. 3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead. 4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why. 5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
