CVE-2017-18235
The VPXChunk class in XMPFiles/source/FormatSupport/WEBP_Support.cpp does not ensure nonzero widths and heights, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via a crafted .webp file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.05%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
