NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream graphicsmagick package and not the graphicsmagick package as distributed by Ubuntu.

GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 has a NULL pointer dereference in the WriteMAPImage() function in coders/map.c when processing a non-colormapped image, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-11638.
