Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ImageMagick version 7.0.5-5

Description The issue is related to the ReadSFWImage function in sfw.c, which can cause a denial of service due to a memory leak when processing a crafted file. This can allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by exploiting the buffer overflow in memory, resulting in memory access issues.

Recommendations For ImageMagick version 7.0.5-5, consider disabling the ReadSFWImage function in sfw.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the sfw.c module to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the ReadSFWImage function with untrusted files until the issue is resolved.
