CVE-2026-4755
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedCWE-20 vulnerability in MolotovCherry Android-ImageMagick7.This issue affects Android-ImageMagick7: before 7.1.2-11.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceCWE-20 (Improper Input Validation) vulnerability in MolotovCherry's Android-ImageMagick7 image processing library with critical severity (CVSS 9.8). The vulnerability exists in versions prior to 7.1.2-11 and could allow attackers to exploit improper input handling during image processing operations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed version of Android-ImageMagick7Locate the Molotovcherry Android-ImageMagick7 library in your application dependencies or system packages and retrieve its version numberAffected if The installed version is lower than 7.1.2-11 (e.g., 7.1.2-10, 7.1.1-x, or any version starting with 7.0.x)
-
Verify image processing feature is in useSearch your codebase for imports or references to the Android-ImageMagick7 image processing library (look for calls to image manipulation functions, image decoding, or format conversion operations)Affected if Your application or service actively uses the Android-ImageMagick7 library for processing images
-
Determine if external input reaches image processingTrace data flow from user-controlled sources (HTTP requests, file uploads, network inputs) to the ImageMagick processing functions to identify if untrusted input is passed directly to image operationsAffected if External or untrusted input is passed to image processing functions without prior validation or sanitization
-
Review input handling configurationExamine any configuration files, policy files, or runtime settings that control how the ImageMagick library handles input data, including any delegates or coders configured for image formatsAffected if Input handling is configured to accept arbitrary or unvalidated input sources
Your environment is affected if Android-ImageMagick7 version is below 7.1.2-11 AND your application uses the library to process external or untrusted image input.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped7.1.2-11
Upgrade Android-ImageMagick7 to version 7.1.2-11 or later to patch the input validation vulnerability. Review and validate all image processing code paths that handle external input.
7.1.2-11
- Identify the current Android-ImageMagick7 version in use by checking the project's build configuration or dependency manifest
- Upgrade Android-ImageMagick7 to version 7.1.2-11 or later
- Verify the upgrade by confirming the new version is installed and running any existing test suites
- Rebuild and redeploy any applications that depend on this library
