CVE-2026-56371: ImageMagick

Medium severity, CVSS 5.3. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

ImageMagick before 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contains a memory leak in coders/txt.c when processing TXT files with texture attributes: the texture object allocated via ReadImage is not released when GetTypeMetrics fails, leaking memory each time a crafted TXT file with a texture attribute is processed.

Affected products

• ImageMagick ImageMagick: before 6.9.13-40 (fixed in 6.9.13-40); from 7.0.0-0, before 7.1.2-15 (fixed in 7.1.2-15)
