CVE-2026-25987
GHSA-42p5-62qq-mmh7
CVE-2026-25987
Summary
ImageMagick, a popular image editing software, has a security flaw in its MAP image decoder. This means that if an attacker sends a specially crafted image file, it could cause the software to crash or accidentally reveal sensitive information. Ensure you're running version 7.1.2-15 or later, or version 6.9.13-40 or later, as these have the necessary fix.

Original title
ImageMagick has heap buffer over-read in MAP image decoder
Original description
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, a heap buffer over-read vulnerability exists in the MAP image decoder when processing crafted MAP files, potentially leading to crashes or unintended memory disclosure during image decoding. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.
