Doc Text:
A flaw was found in ImageMagick. A local attacker can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) or memory corruption by providing crafted -fx expressions under low-memory conditions. When a memory allocation fails during expression processing, the application accesses previously freed memory, leading to an abnormal program termination.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-12 16:52:42 UTC
ImageMagick 7.1.0-20 before 7.1.2-32 contains a use after free vulnerability in the -fx option that occurs when a memory allocation fails during a specific operation. Attackers who can supply crafted -fx expressions under memory pressure can trigger freed memory access, causing crashes or memory corruption.
