CVE-2007-4987
Off-by-one error in the ReadBlobString function in blob.c in ImageMagick before 6.3.5-9 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted image file, which triggers the writing of a '\0' character to an out-of-bounds address.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.82%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
