How do you think we should do?

Sahya, thank you for reporting this issue so quickly.

I think that Redmine 3.3.2 / 3.2.5 (released on 2017-01-07) and later are not affected with the vulnerability because they don't process Utah RLE images. By the change introduced in r16092, Redmine don't make ImageMagick process a image if the image format is not BMP, GIF, JPEG and PNG. But older versions of Redmine are vulnerable.

On my CentOS7.

$ tar xf urt-img.tar
$ LC_ALL=C file img/christmas_ball.rle 
img/christmas_ball.rle: RLE image data, 400 x 400, clear first, alpha channel, comment, 3 color channels, 8 bits per pixel

I think severity level of the vulnerability is high.
And any website is fixed.
I remember that Redmine use imagemagick.
So I reported this issue.

Actions #5

  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Resolution set to Wont fix

I think we can close this issue because current versions of Redmine (3.3.2 / 3.2.5 and later) don't treat Utah RLE files as images (r16092), therefore, they are not affected with the vulnerability.

Sahya, thank you for letting us know this serious vulnerability.
