The allocation fails and Imager's allocator calls exit(3).\n\nReading an attacker-supplied file through Imager->read() triggers an uncatchable exit.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"abyssal","depthScore":62,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":50.1,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":207065,"id":"CVE-2026-93019","ts":1789753653476,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"},{"seq":207064,"id":"CVE-2026-93019","ts":1789753653476,"field":"cvss","old":null,"new":"9.1"},{"seq":207063,"id":"CVE-2026-93019","ts":1789753653476,"field":"severity","old":"none","new":"critical"}]}
