ImageMagick before 7.1.2-26 and 6.9.13-51 contains a memory leak in the ICON decoder that occurs when a memory allocation fails. Processing a crafted ICON file that triggers an allocation failure leaks memory, which may lead to a denial of service.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES16 / SLES_SAP16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:22861-1 advisory.

    This update for ImageMagick fixes the following issues

    - CVE-2026-56375: Possible memory leak in ASHLAR coder when action fails (bsc#1271495).
    - CVE-2026-56379: arbitrary MVG drawing command injection via the SVG decoder when processing specially     crafted SVG files (bsc#1268878).
    - CVE-2026-61464: Heap Buffer Over-Write in X11 import with crafted window title (bsc#1271496).
    - CVE-2026-61859: Policy Bypass in script operation due to missing checks (bsc#1271497).
    - CVE-2026-61860: Use-After-Free when freetype initialization fails (bsc#1271494).
    - CVE-2026-61862: Information Disclosure when printing profiles with debug enabled (bsc#1271493).
    - CVE-2026-61863: Memory Leak in TIFF encoder when a temporary file could not be created (bsc#1271492).
    - CVE-2026-61864: Memory Leak in color transformation to log colorspace when operation fails     (bsc#1271491).
    - CVE-2026-61865: Memory Leak in hough lines operation when an operation fails (bsc#1271490).
    - CVE-2026-61866: Memory Leak in JNG encoder when a blob could not be opened (bsc#1271489).
    - CVE-2026-61867: Memory Leak in TIFF encoder when an allocation fails (bsc#1271488).
    - CVE-2026-61868: Memory Leak in YUV decoder when opening of blob fails (bsc#1271487).
    - CVE-2026-61869: Memory Leak in MIFF encoder when allocation fails (bsc#1271486).
    - CVE-2026-61871: Memory Leak in ICON decoder when allocation fails (bsc#1271485).
    - CVE-2026-61872: Memory Leak in TIFF encoder when invalid tiff:tile-geometry is specified (bsc#1271484).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - ImageMagick before 7.1.2-26 and 6.9.13-51 contains a memory leak in the ICON decoder that occurs when a     memory allocation fails. Processing a crafted ICON file that triggers an allocation failure leaks memory,     which may lead to a denial of service. (CVE-2026-61871)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
