The ReadGROUP4Image function in coders/tiff.c in ImageMagick before 7.0.1-10 does not check the return value of the fputc function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted image file.

Weakness

The product does not check the return value from a method or function, which can prevent it from detecting unexpected states and conditions.
