EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 6.9.13-27 and 7.1.2-1, there is undefined behavior (function-type-mismatch) in splay tree cloning callback. This results in a deterministic abort under UBSan (DoS in sanitizer builds), with no crash in a non-sanitized build. This issue has been patched in versions 6.9.13-27 and 7.1.2-1.

    ## 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 --without-xml --without-lqr --without-gslib Harness compile flags: -fsanitize=fuzzer,address,undefined -fno-omit-frame-pointer pkg-config cflags/libs supplied: -I<...>/include/ImageMagick-7 -DMAGICKCORE_HDRI_ENABLE=1 -DMAGICKCORE_QUANTUM_DEPTH=16 -DMAGICKCORE_CHANNEL_MASK_DEPTH=32 and linked against MagickWand-7.Q16HDRI and MagickCore-7.Q16HDRI Sanitizer runtime: ASan+UBSan defaults.

ConstantString has a different signature (`char *ConstantString(const char *)`). Calling through the mismatched function type is undefined behavior in C and triggers UBSan’s function-type-mismatch. The path is exercised during coalescing: CloneImage → CloneImageProfiles → CloneSplayTree. Scope Reproduces with a minimal, sanitizer-instrumented, PNG-enabled build and delegates disabled (policy.xml), suggesting the issue is in MagickCore rather than external delegates. Suggested fix (sketch) Use a wrapper that matches the expected callback prototype, or adjust the splay-tree callback typedef for const-correctness. For example: static void *CloneStringShim(const void *p) { return (void *) ConstantString((const char *) p); } /* When setting splay-tree clone_value, use CloneStringShim instead of ConstantString. */ Alternatively, update the clone callback typedefs to use const void* consistently (and return void*) and ensure callers pass a correctly typed wrapper.
