CVE-2026-23874 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
A fix was pushed into the master branch but not yet published.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Infinite loop in ProcessMSLScript. An attacker can cause the application to crash or become unresponsive by supplying a specially crafted Magick Scripting Language (MSL) file that triggers infinite recursion, resulting in a stack overflow.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by restricting the ability to process Magick Scripting Language (MSL) files through a policy entry that disables the MSL coder in the ImageMagick policy file.
