Last updated on: 2026-06-11

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 6.9.13-47 and 7.1.2-22, due to a missing check in the PSD decoder it would be possible to bypass the list-length resource policy when decoding a PSD image. Other security limits would still apply. This issue has been patched in versions 6.9.13-47 and 7.1.2-22.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in ImageMagick, a free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Before versions 6.9.13-47 and 7.1.2-22, there was a missing check in the PSD image decoder that allowed an attacker to bypass the list-length resource policy when decoding a PSD image. Although other security limits would still apply, this missing check could potentially allow resource usage beyond intended limits. The issue has been fixed in the mentioned versions.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can impact you by allowing an attacker to bypass the list-length resource policy when decoding PSD images in vulnerable versions of ImageMagick. This could lead to increased resource consumption, potentially causing denial of service or performance degradation. However, other security limits remain in place, which may mitigate some risks.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, update ImageMagick to version 6.9.13-47 or later, or 7.1.2-22 or later, where the issue has been patched.
