Updated ImageMagick packages fix vulnerabilities
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in how ImageMagick
parsed XCF files. If ImageMagick opened a specially-crafted XCF
file, it could be made to overwrite heap memory beyond the bounds
of its allocated memory, potentially allowing an attacker to execute
arbitrary code on the system running ImageMagick (CVE-2008-1096).
Another heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in how
ImageMagick processed certain malformed PCX images. If ImageMagick
opened a specially-crafted PCX image file, an attacker could
possibly execute arbitrary code on the system running ImageMagick
(CVE-2008-1097).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
