CVE-2017-11505 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in ImageMagick versions through 6.9.9-0 and 7.x through 7.0.6-1. A remote attacker can exploit this by providing a specially crafted JNG image file, causing the ReadOneJNGImage function to enter a large loop, leading to high CPU consumption and a denial of service. Rated as Medium severity (CVSS 6.5), this vulnerability requires user interaction (UI:R) and 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.
