The ReadDPXImage function in codersdpx.c in ImageMagick 7.0.6-0 has a large loop vulnerability that can cause CPU exhaustion via a crafted DPX file, related to lack of an EOF check.

Weakness

The product performs an iteration or loop without sufficiently limiting the number of times that the loop is executed.
