CVE-2026-106572
Prior to 7.1.2-30 and 6.9.13-55, a missing recursion-depth check in the CALS decoder allows a crafted CALS image to exhaust the call stack and terminate the process.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.38%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
