Why this priority?

Buffer overflow in the ReadEmbeddedTextTag function in src/cmsio1.c in Little cms color engine (aka lcms) before 1.16 allows attackers to have an unknown impact via vectors related to a length parameter inconsistency involving the contents of "the input file," a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-2741.
