  - ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to
    versions 6.9.13-28 and 7.1.2-2 for ImageMagick's 32-bit build, a 32-bit integer overflow in the BMP
    encoder's scanline-stride computation collapses bytes_per_line (stride) to a tiny value while the per-row
    writer still emits 3  width bytes for 24-bpp images. The row base pointer advances using the (overflowed)
    stride, so the first row immediately writes past its slot and into adjacent heap memory with attacker-
    controlled bytes. This is a classic, powerful primitive for heap corruption in common auto-convert
    pipelines. This issue has been patched in versions 6.9.13-28 and 7.1.2-2. (CVE-2025-57803)
