CVE-2017-11449

28
FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-11449 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in ImageMagick versions prior to 7.0.6-1, specifically within the coders/mpc.c component. This flaw, stemming from a lack of seekable stream enablement, prevents proper validation of blob sizes for images received via stdin, leading to application crashes. With a CVSS score of 8.8 (High), it presents a significant risk of denial of service, and potentially other unspecified impacts, requiring user interaction to trigger. Despite its high severity, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
