CVE-2019-11472
ReadXWDImage in coders/xwd.c in the XWD image parsing component of ImageMagick 7.0.8-41 Q16 allows attackers to cause a denial-of-service (divide-by-zero error) by crafting an XWD image file in which the header indicates neither LSB first nor MSB first.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.41%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
