Technical details
The vulnerability exists in ImageMagick's XMP profile parser, specifically in how it determines numerator and denominator values for rational numbers. A malicious XMP profile can trigger excessive computational work in this parser, causing denial of service. The issue is fixed by implementing a more efficient algorithm for rational value parsing.
