This updates fixes several vulnerabilities in imagemagick: Various memory handling problems and cases of missing or incomplete input sanitising may result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if malformed SIXEL, PDB, MAP, SGI, TIFF and CALS files are processed.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.
