GHSA-x98x-mp75-v6m4
ImageMagick versions before 7.1.2-19 contain a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the magnify operation. This flaw is triggered by an unrecognized magnify:method value, causing an out of bounds read. The vulnerability may allow attackers to read memory beyond intended boundaries, potentially exposing sensitive information or causing a denial of service. No known exploits are reported in the wild. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-122 (Heap-based Buffer Overflow).
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-56372 describes a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in ImageMagick prior to version 7.1.2-19. The issue occurs in the magnify operation when an unrecognized magnify:method value is processed, leading to an out of bounds memory read. This can result in information disclosure or denial of service. The vulnerability has a moderate severity rating and no known public exploits. No patch information is provided in the source data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can lead to out of bounds memory reads, which may expose sensitive information or cause the application to crash, resulting in denial of service. There are no reports of active exploitation in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, avoid processing untrusted input with the magnify operation or restrict usage to trusted sources only.
