Upgrade Magick.NET.Core to version 13.3.0 or higher.
Overview
Magick.NET.Core is a .NET library for ImageMagick
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Heap-based Buffer Overflow when the ReadHuffmanCodes() function is used. An attacker can craft a special WebP lossless file that triggers the ReadHuffmanCodes() function to allocate the HuffmanCode buffer with a size that comes from an array of precomputed sizes: kTableSize. The color_cache_bits value defines which size to use. The kTableSize array only takes into account sizes for 8-bit first-level table lookups but not second-level table lookups. libwebp allows codes that are up to 15-bit (MAX_ALLOWED_CODE_LENGTH). When BuildHuffmanTable() attempts to fill the second-level tables it may write data out-of-bounds. The OOB write to the undersized array happens in ReplicateValue.
Notes:
This is only exploitable if the color_cache_bits value defines which size to use.
