CVE-2025-53014: ImageMagick

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Versions prior to 7.1.2-0 and 6.9.13-26 have a heap buffer overflow in the `InterpretImageFilename` function. The issue stems from an off-by-one error that causes out-of-bounds memory access when processing format strings containing consecutive percent signs (`%%`). Versions 7.1.2-0 and 6.9.13-26 fix the issue.

Affected products

• ImageMagick ImageMagick: before 6.9.13-26 (fixed in 6.9.13-26); from 7.0.0-0, before 7.1.2-0 (fixed in 7.1.2-0)
