CVE-2017-11140
The ReadJPEGImage function in coders/jpeg.c in GraphicsMagick 1.3.26 creates a pixel cache before a successful read of a scanline, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via crafted JPEG files.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.82%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
