NVD Description

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

The ReadJPEGImage function in coders/jpeg.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 creates a pixel cache before a successful read of a scanline, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via crafted JPEG files.
