Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote host has a version of ImageMagick installed that is prior to 6.9.13-48 or 7.x prior 7.1.2-22. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

 — An invalid connected-components:keep-top value could result in a heap buffer over-read when performing the connected components operation. (CVE-2026-45359)
