CVE-2005-0524
The php_handle_iff function in image.c for PHP 4.2.2, 4.3.9, 4.3.10 and 5.0.3, as reachable by the getimagesize PHP function, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a -8 size value.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.45%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
