Summary
ImageMagick has NULL pointer dereference in ReadSFWImage after DestroyImageInfo (sfw.c)
Original description
The description as published by the source.
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, in ReadSFWImage() (coders/sfw.c), when temporary file creation fails, read_info is destroyed before its filename member is accessed, causing a NULL pointer dereference and crash. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.
