Integer overflow in MagickCore/profile.c in ImageMagick before 7.0.2-1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors involving the offset variable.
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 13.4%, higher than 96% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
