CVE-2026-47667

HIGHPre-NVD 7.57.5
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.4%, top 64% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

CImg Library is a C++ library for image processing. Prior to version 4.0.0 in _load_analyze(), the header_size field is read as an unsigned int from the first 4 bytes of an Analyze/NIfTI file and passed directly to new unsigned char[header_size] without being bounded against the actual file size. A value up to ~4 GB is accepted. If the subsequent fread returns short as it will for any malformed file), the function throws a CImgIOException and the allocated buffer is never freed. A 6-byte crafted file is sufficient to trigger an allocation of ~1.3 GB per call, with the full allocation leaked on every error path. The issue is reachable via load_analyze() and the generic load() when the file extension is .hdr, .img, or .nii. Version 4.0.0 fixes the issue.

EG Risk is EchelonGraph's 0–100 priority score: it fuses intrinsic severity with real-world exploitation and automatability so you can rank equal-severity CVEs and fix the most dangerous first. Higher = act sooner. Distinct from the 0–10 EG Score (severity).
