NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream imagemagick package and not the imagemagick package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The ReadOneJNGImage function in coders/png.c in ImageMagick through 6.9.9-0 and 7.x through 7.0.6-1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (large loop and CPU consumption) via a malformed JNG file.
