CVE-2023-29407

A maliciously-crafted image can cause excessive CPU consumption in decoding.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 0.87%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.87%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

A maliciously-crafted image can cause excessive CPU consumption in decoding. A tiled image with a height of 0 and a very large width can cause excessive CPU consumption, despite the image size (width * height) appearing to be zero.
