CVE-2015-8894

16
FAUCET Score

CVE-2015-8894 describes a double free vulnerability in ImageMagick versions 7.0.0 and later, specifically within the coders/tga.c component. This flaw allows remote attackers to trigger a denial of service (application crash) by providing a specially crafted TGA image file. With a CVSS score of 5.5 (Medium), exploitation requires user interaction (UI:R) and local access (AV:L), but has a high impact on availability (A:H). There is no evidence of active exploitation, publicly available exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage, suggesting a low current threat landscape.
