What is CVE-2026-116154?

A memory leak vulnerability exists in ImageMagick prior to version 6.9.13-58 and 7.x prior to 7.1.2-33 due to ineffective memory management during XML parsing. When deeply nested XML data is processed, allocated memory is not properly released if the nesting depth limit is exceeded. This issue can be exploited by attackers to supply specifically crafted XML content, leading to memory exhaustion and potential denial of service for the affected applications.

Affected Version(s)

ImageMagick 7.0.0-0 < 7.1.2-33

ImageMagick 0 < 6.9.13-58

ImageMagick 7.1.2-33
