ImageMagick before 7.1.2-26 and 6.9.13-51 is missing a check for the allowed memory allocation limit in matrix-backed operations such as -canny. An attacker can supply a crafted image that causes ImageMagick to allocate more memory than permitted by the configured policy, resulting in a denial of service.

A flaw was found in ImageMagick. This vulnerability occurs because ImageMagick is missing a check for the allowed memory allocation limit during certain image processing operations, such as when using the -canny function. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted image, causing the software to allocate more memory than permitted by its configuration. This can lead to a denial of service (DoS), making the system or application unavailable to legitimate users.
