Debian Security Advisory

DLA-3357-2 imagemagick -- LTS security update

Date Reported:
18 Mar 2023
Affected Packages:
imagemagick
Vulnerable:
Yes
Security database references:
No other external database security references currently available.
More information:

The previous Imagemagick security update caused a regression in some perl packages due to overly restrictive hardening in a policy update (reading from /etc/ was forbidden). This hardening patch has been removed.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 8:6.9.10.23+dfsg-2.1+deb10u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.
