ImageMagick is vulnerable to an out of bounds read / heap overflow in the function HorizontalFilter() in the file resize.c. It is triggered if an image has dimensions 0x0.
The issue has been found with the help of Address Sanitizer and the fuzzing tool zzuf.
ImageMagick has released version 6.8.9-9 which fixes this and some other out-of-bounds issues. GraphicsMagick, which is a fork of ImageMagick, is not affected.
