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.

## Summary - **Target:** ImageMagick (commit `ecc9a5eb456747374bae8e07038ba10b3d8821b3`) - **Type:** Undefined Behavior (function-type-mismatch) in splay tree cloning callback - **Impact:** Deterministic abort under UBSan (DoS in sanitizer builds). No crash in a non-sanitized build; likely low security impact. - **Trigger:** Minimal **2-byte** input parsed via MagickWand, then coalescing. ## Environment OS: macOS (Apple Silicon/arm64) Homebrew clang version 20.1.8 Target: arm64-apple-darwin24.5.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/llvm/20.1.8/bin Configuration file: /opt/homebrew/etc/clang/arm64-apple-darwin24.cfg Homebrew ImageMagick: `magick -version` → `ImageMagick 7.1.2-0 Q16-HDRI aarch64` pkg-config: `MagickWand-7.Q16HDRI` version `7.1.2` Library configure flags (capsule build): ./configure --disable-shared --enable-static --without-modules --without-magick-plus-plus --disable-openmp --without-perl --without-x --with-png=yes --without-jpeg --without-tiff --with...

## **Vulnerability Details** The magnified size calculations in `ReadOneMNGIMage` (in `coders/png.c`) are unsafe and can overflow, leading to memory corruption. The source snippet below is heavily abbreviated due to the size of the function, but hopefully the important points are captured. ```c static Image *ReadOneMNGImage(MngReadInfo* mng_info, const ImageInfo *image_info,ExceptionInfo *exception) { // Lots of stuff, this is effectively a state machine for the MNG rendering commands, // skip to the point where we start processing the "MAGN" command. if (memcmp(type,mng_MAGN,4) == 0) { png_uint_16 magn_first, magn_last, magn_mb, magn_ml, magn_mr, magn_mt, magn_mx, magn_my, magn_methx, magn_methy; // Details unimportant, but each of the `magn_xxx` variables is read from the file. if (magn_first == ...
