Buffer overflow in the progressive reader for libpng 1.2.x before 1.2.4, and 1.0.x before 1.0.14, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a PNG data stream that has more IDAT data than indicated by the IHDR chunk.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.09%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
