CVE-2026-56376: ImageMagick

Low severity, CVSS 3.3. EPSS: 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

ImageMagick before 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contains a heap use-after-free in the meta coder: when memory allocation fails, a single byte is written to a stale pointer. Remote attackers can trigger it by processing specially crafted image files, causing a denial of service.

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)
