ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-16, a heap-based buffer overflow in the UHDR encoder can happen due to truncation of a value and it would allow an out of bounds write. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.2-16.

    Multiple security vulnerabilities were discovered in imagemagick, a     software suite used for editing and manipulating digital images, which     could lead to symlink races, information leaks, denial of service and     potentially arbitrary code execution.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 8:7.1.1.43+dfsg1-1+deb13u7.

    We recommend that you upgrade your imagemagick packages.

    For the detailed security status of imagemagick please refer to     its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/imagemagick
