NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ImageMagick package and not the ImageMagick package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The WritePICONImage function in coders/xpm.c in ImageMagick 7.0.6-4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak) via a crafted file that is mishandled in an AcquireSemaphoreInfo call.
