CVE-2017-17681
In ImageMagick 7.0.7-12 Q16, an infinite loop vulnerability was found in the function ReadPSDChannelZip in coders/psd.c, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU exhaustion) via a crafted psd image file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.97%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
