What is CVE-2025-55005?

ImageMagick, a widely used open-source software for editing and manipulating digital images, has a vulnerability that causes memory corruption during a color space transformation. Specifically, when transitioning from Log to sRGB colorspaces, the software improperly handles scenarios where the reference-black or reference-white values exceed 1024. This flaw results in memory being corrupted beyond the limits of the allocated logmap buffer. Users are advised to update to version 7.1.2-1 or later to mitigate this issue.

Affected Version(s)
