Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in vips, a fast image processing library. These vulnerabilities could result in denial of service, memory safety issues, or other security impact when processing specially crafted image files or data.

For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in version 8.16.1-1+deb13u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your vips packages.
