{"id":"ALPINE-CVE-2026-25796","details":"ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, in `ReadSTEGANOImage()` (`coders/stegano.c`), the `watermark` Image object is not freed on three early-return paths, resulting in a definite memory leak (~13.5KB+ per invocation) that can be exploited for denial of service. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.","modified":"2026-11-03T06:33:01.854461760Z","published":"2026-02-24T01:16:14.293Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-25796"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.alpinelinux.org/vuln/CVE-2026-25796"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"imagemagick","ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.22","purl":"pkg:apk/alpine/imagemagick?arch=source"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"7.0.0-0"},{"fixed":"7.1.2.15-r0"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/alpine/ALPINE-CVE-2026-25796.json"}},{"package":{"name":"imagemagick","ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.23","purl":"pkg:apk/alpine/imagemagick?arch=source"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"7.0.0-0"},{"fixed":"7.1.2.15-r0"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/alpine/ALPINE-CVE-2026-25796.json"}},{"package":{"name":"imagemagick","ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.24","purl":"pkg:apk/alpine/imagemagick?arch=source"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"7.0.0-0"},{"fixed":"7.1.2.15-r0"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/alpine/ALPINE-CVE-2026-25796.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.2","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
