CVE-2017-11141
The ReadMATImage function in coders\mat.c in ImageMagick 7.0.5-6 has a memory leak vulnerability that can cause memory exhaustion via a crafted MAT file, related to incorrect ordering of a SetImageExtent call.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.67%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
