Once converted, it will load it and trigger the MSL coder which will create the file /var/Controlled output ImageMagick will convert it to the following MVG file: push graphic-context Moreover, it parses each xlink:href xml attribute and converts it to MVG image directives.įor example, if we provide the following SVG file: By default, ImageMagick reads each SVG file and first converts it to its own file format, which is MVG (Magick Vector Graphics ). If the file path is known, the msl: coder can be invoked from an SVG image file.

#IMAGEMAGICK POLICY XML PDF#
For example, the following magic bytes are defined for the PDF file format: //coders/pdf.h

ImageMagick recognizes the format (and the coder) associated to each provided file according to the magic bytes contained on the file. Let's say it is now enabled and the line is removed from the policy.xml file for convenience: One could notice the default policy will never allow such operations as the PDF coder is disabled. For example, the following command-line asks ImageMagick to convert an image file to the PDF format: $ convert sample.png result.pdf For example, the one distributed on the Debian package imagemagick-6-common only disables the Ghostscript coders: įiles are usually provided to the convert command-line tool of ImageMagick. However, the default policy.xml file shipped with ImageMagick is not always well configured. As documented in the ImageTragick 2 website, the policy.xml file should be modified in order to prevent vulnerable coders such as MSL. ImageMagick divides different file formats in coders that can be disabled in a policy.xml file. We will discuss here in which context some harmful features can still be exploited, and we will give an implementation example that uses the aforementioned deprecated version. It should be noted that we were not able to exploit the PDF command injection on ImageMagick legacy as it seems the PDF authentication feature was broken on this version, as stated in the InsertScript 's article 3. This legacy version, that can be easily installed, is considered deprecated as some features are not disabled, even if the command injection vulnerabilities have been fixed. At the time this article is written, the available version is: On this blog post, we will focus on the latest ImageMagick version available on the Debian Buster repositories 4. A shell injection on the PDF file format found by InsertScript 3 and disclosed at the end of 2020.ImageTragick 2 during 2016, that details a set of vulnerabilities, including command injections in URL manipulations, and features that allow arbitrary file read and write.These issues were unveiled by two interesting articles: Several dangerous features and vulnerabilities were previously found on ImageMagick and were fixed over time.

ImageMagick 1is an image manipulation tool that can read and write images in a lot of formats.
