CVE-2025-53014 is a low-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Imagemagick Imagemagick, published on 14 Jul 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim. ### Official description ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Versions prior to 7.1.2-0 and 6.9.13-26 have a heap buffer overflow in the `InterpretImageFilename` function. The issue stems from an off-by-one error that causes out-of-bounds memory access when processing format strings containing consecutive percent signs (`%%`). Versions 7.1.2-0 and 6.9.13-26 fix the issue. Weakness: CWE-193 (Off-by-one Error), CWE-125 (Out-of-bounds Read) ## Which versions are affected by CVE-2025-53014? 36 open source packages ship an affected version, including Magick.NET-Q16-AnyCPU, Magick.NET-Q16-HDRI-AnyCPU and Magick.NET-Q16-HDRI-OpenMP-arm64.

Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies. 2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it. 3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead. 4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why. 5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
