Description
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, in `ReadSTEGANOImage()` (`coders/stegano.c`), the `watermark` Image object is not freed on three early-return paths, resulting in a definite memory leak (~13.5KB+ per invocation) that can be exploited for denial of service. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.
ImageMagick is a free, open-source software suite for creating, editing, converting, and displaying images. It supports 200+ formats and offers powerful command-line tools and APIs for automation, scripting, and integration across platforms.
