CVE-2007-1797

Status: ModifiedMedium (6.8)—
Multiple integer overflows in ImageMagick before 6.3.3-5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a crafted DCM image, which results in a heap-based overflow in the ReadDCMImage function, or (2) the (a) colors or (b) comments field in a crafted XWD image, which results in a heap-based overflow in the ReadXWDImage function, different issues than CVE-2007-1667.
CVSS

Version: 2.0
Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Base score: 6.8
Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 3.53%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 89
Score date: 10/9/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
