ImageMagick filename command injection
| imagemagick-filename-command-injection (23927) |  High Risk |
Description:
ImageMagick could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the system, caused by a vulnerability in the delegate code. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted image file with a filename containing shell commands that would be executed on the victim's system when opened with the command line or the file open dialog box.
