CVE-2026-109964: ImageMagick before 7.1.2-33 and 6.9.13-58 Heap Buffer Underwrite in PICT Decoder
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 25/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.34% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: imagemagick (Debian:12) 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.6+deb12u15; imagemagick (Debian:13) 8:7.1.1.43+dfsg1-1+deb13u14; imagemagick (Debian:14) 8:7.1.2.33+dfsg1-1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to imagemagick (Debian:12) 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.6+deb12u15; imagemagick (Debian:13) 8:7.1.1.43+dfsg1-1+deb13u14; imagemagick (Debian:14) 8:7.1.2.33+dfsg1-1 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
ImageMagick before 7.1.2-33 and 6.9.13-58 contains a heap buffer underwrite vulnerability in DecodeImage() in coders/pict.c on 32-bit builds due to pointer arithmetic overflow. Attackers can supply a crafted PICT file with maximized row, column and bytes-per-line values to bypass bounds checks and write up to 128 controlled bytes below the heap buffer, causing crashes or code execution.
