Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted tiff file.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 3.17%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

ImageMagick 7.0.7-26 Q16 has excessive iteration in the DecodeLabImage and EncodeLabImage functions (coders/tiff.c), which results in a hang (tens of minutes) with a tiny PoC file. Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted tiff file.
