DescriptionCVE.org

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 6.9.13-51 and 7.1.2-26, an integer overflow in the XCF decoder can result in an out of bounds read when a crafted image is read, potentially resulting in a crash. This issue has been fixed in versions 6.9.13-51 and 7.1.2-26.

AnalysisAI

Integer overflow in ImageMagick's XCF (GIMP native format) decoder allows remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger an out-of-bounds read by supplying a crafted XCF image file, resulting in an application crash or limited memory disclosure. All ImageMagick releases prior to 6.9.13-51 (legacy branch) and 7.1.2-26 (current branch) are affected. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Submit crafted XCF image to ImageMagick-backed endpoint
Delivery
XCF decoder reads attacker-controlled integer field
Exploit
Integer overflow corrupts calculated buffer bound
Execution
Out-of-bounds read accesses adjacent memory
Impact
Application process crashes or leaks heap bytes

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The vulnerable code path requires that the target system invoke the ImageMagick XCF image decoder on attacker-controlled input - meaning the application must accept XCF-format files, or lack format validation that would block them before decoding. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The NVD-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L accurately characterizes the attack surface: the flaw is reachable over a network with no authentication, no user interaction, and low attack complexity, making it broadly automatable. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker submits a specially crafted XCF image file to a web application, API endpoint, or image-processing pipeline that passes user-supplied files to ImageMagick. The malformed XCF triggers the integer overflow in the decoder, which causes an out-of-bounds read - either crashing the ImageMagick worker process (denial of service) or, in a more targeted scenario, leaking a small region of heap memory that could contain session tokens or other sensitive data processed nearby. …
Remediation Upgrade ImageMagick to version 6.9.13-51 or later (for 6.x deployments) or to version 7.1.2-26 or later (for 7.x deployments), as confirmed by the vendor security advisory at https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/security/advisories/GHSA-pjxj-pchx-4c3m. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
