Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Magick.NET-Q16 packages (AnyCPU, HDRI, OpenMP and architecture-specific variants) before 14.10.3 are vulnerable. When a PCD file lacks a valid marker, the DecodeImage() function loops indefinitely while searching for it, so a crafted file can make the program hang and consume CPU until resources are exhausted. Upgrade to version 14.10.3 or later. The source gives few details about how the file is supplied to the application.
