CVE-2026-109264: ImageMagick before 6.9.13-57 and 7.x before 7.1.2-32 Stack Overflow in MVG Decoder

Q: Who is exposed to this issue?

Any deployment running an affected ImageMagick version that processes file names controlled by an attacker is exposed. The documented impact is a crash of the ImageMagick process, resulting in denial of service.

Q: What does an attacker need to exploit it?

The attacker needs control over a file name that ImageMagick processes. No privileges or user interaction are required according to the provided severity vector, but exploitation has high attack complexity.

Q: Which versions should be remediated?

Upgrade ImageMagick 6 to 6.9.13-57 or later, or ImageMagick 7 to 7.1.2-32 or later. Versions before those releases are affected.

Updated

ImageMagick before 6.9.13-57 and 7.x before 7.1.2-32 contains uncontrolled recursion in the MVG decoder that can exhaust the program stack. An attacker who controls a file name processed by ImageMagick can trigger a stack overflow that crashes the process, causing a denial of service.
