CVE-2026-25985· NVD / CVE Program· CNA GitHub_M

Memory allocation with excessive without limits in the internal SVG decoder

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 30/100)

  • 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: 0.74% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 54.1% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
  • Fixed version: imagemagick (Debian:12) 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.6+deb12u8; imagemagick (Debian:13) 8:7.1.1.43+dfsg1-1+deb13u6; imagemagick (Debian:14) 8:7.1.2.15+dfsg1-1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to imagemagick (Debian:12) 8:6.9.11.60+dfsg-1.6+deb12u8; imagemagick (Debian:13) 8:7.1.1.43+dfsg1-1+deb13u6; imagemagick (Debian:14) 8:7.1.2.15+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 is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, a crafted SVG file containing an malicious element causes ImageMagick to attempt to allocate ~674 GB of memory, leading to an out-of-memory abort. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.
