Security update for ImageMagick

This update for ImageMagick fixes the following issues:

  • CVE-2017-14325: In ImageMagick, a memory leak vulnerability was found in the function PersistPixelCache in magick/cache.c, which allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption in ReadMPCImage in coders/mpc.c) via a crafted file. [bsc#1058635]
  • CVE-2017-17887: In ImageMagick, a memory leak vulnerability was found in the function GetImagePixelCache in magick/cache.c, which allowed attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted MNG image file that is processed by ReadOneMNGImage. [bsc#1074117]
  • CVE-2017-18250: A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was found in the function LogOpenCLBuildFailure in MagickCore/opencl.c, which could lead to a denial of service via a crafted file. [bsc#1087039]
  • CVE-2017-18251: A memory leak vulnerability was found in the function ReadPCDImage in coders/pcd.c, which could lead to a denial of service via a crafted file. [bsc#1087037]
  • CVE-2017-18252: The MogrifyImageList function in MagickWand/mogrify.c could allow attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file. [bsc#1087033]
