Memory leak in pngrutil.c in libpng before 1.2.44, and 1.4.x before 1.4.3, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and application crash) via a PNG image containing malformed Physical Scale (aka sCAL) chunks.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 2.63%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.63%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
