## Summary A 32-bit integer overflow in the BMP encoder’s scanline-stride computation collapses `bytes_per_line` (stride) to a tiny value while the per-row writer still emits `3 × width` bytes for 24-bpp images. The row base pointer advances using the (overflowed) stride, so the first row immediately writes past its slot and into adjacent heap memory with attacker-controlled bytes. This is a classic, powerful primitive for heap corruption in common auto-convert pipelines. - **Impact:** Attacker-controlled heap out-of-bounds (OOB) write during conversion **to BMP**. - **Surface:** Typical upload → normalize/thumbnail → `magick ... out.bmp` workers. - **32-bit:** **Vulnerable** (reproduced with ASan). - **64-bit:** Safe from this specific integer overflow (IOF) by arithmetic, but still add product/size guards. - **Proposed severity:** **Critical 9.8** (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). --- ## Scope & Affected Builds - **Project:** ImageMagick (B...

The application constructs a shell command using unsanitized user input passed to the system() function, calling an external binary for authentication. Due to improper input handling and reliance on the binary's return value for access control, an attacker can inject special characters, such as a double quote (") to manipulate command parsing and induce execution failure. Since the application interprets any non-zero exit code from the binary as successful authentication, this flaw allows remote users to bypass authentication entirely without providing valid credentials.
