For GraphicsMagick version 1.4 snapshot-20181209 Q8, consider disabling the
WriteTGAImage function until a patch is available to prevent potential exploitation. Additionally, restrict the use of the TGA image format to minimize the risk of a denial of service attack. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploit
