"The version of ImageMagick installed on the remote host is prior to 6.9.10.97-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2026-3786 advisory.

    ImageMagick before 7.1.2-15 contains a memory leak vulnerability in multiple coders that write raw pixel
    data where allocated objects are not properly freed. Attackers can trigger this leak by processing
    specially crafted images, causing memory exhaustion and denial of service. (CVE-2026-56368)

    ImageMagick before 7.1.2-19 contains an out-of-bounds access vulnerability in ConnectedComponentsImage()
    when processing connected-components artifacts with invalid indices. Attackers can trigger access
    violations by specifying malformed connected-components definitions via CLI, causing denial of service or
    potential code execution. (CVE-2026-56370)

    ImageMagick before 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contains a memory leak in coders/txt.c when processing TXT files
    with texture attributes: the texture object allocated via ReadImage is not released when GetTypeMetrics
    fails, leaking memory each time a crafted TXT file with a texture attribute is processed. (CVE-2026-56371)

    ImageMagick before 7.1.2-15 (and 6.x before 6.9.13-40) contains a heap out-of-bounds read in the PCD
    coder's DecodeImage loop. A crafted PCD file can trigger a one-byte heap out-of-bounds read during image
    decoding, resulting in denial of service and potential disclosure of an adjacent heap byte.
    (CVE-2026-56378)

    ImageMagick before 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contains a command injection vulnerability in the SVG decoder
    that allows attackers to inject arbitrary MVG drawing commands. Attackers can craft malicious SVG files
    with injected Magick Vector Graphics commands that execute during rendering. (CVE-2026-56379)

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

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