How to fix?

Upgrade Magick.NET-Q8-OpenMP-x64 to version 14.10.2 or higher.

Overview

Magick.NET-Q8-OpenMP-x64 is a Magick.NET allows you can use ImageMagick without having to install ImageMagick on your server or desktop.

More information about specific builds see the [official docs] (https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET/tree/main/docs)

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.
