CVE-2016-8866
The AcquireMagickMemory function in MagickCore/memory.c in ImageMagick 7.0.3.3 before 7.0.3.8 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted image, which triggers a memory allocation failure.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.61%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
