Doc Text:
A flaw was found in ImageMagick. Missing checks in the -script operation allow an attacker to close file descriptors—handles used by the operating system to access open files or resources—that were not opened by the active task. This vulnerability allows an attacker to circumvent configured security policies and potentially cause a Denial of Service (DoS).

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-12 16:51:33 UTC
ImageMagick before 7.1.2-32 contains a policy bypass vulnerability in the -script operation due to missing checks on file descriptor handling. Attackers can use the -script operation to close file descriptors not opened by the current operation, circumventing configured security policies.
