AI-suggested

A fix is available and should be applied by updating ImageMagick to version 7.1.2-31 or later, or 6.9.13-56 or later. Ubuntu users should apply the security updates provided via standard system updates or through Ubuntu Pro Extended Security Maintenance (ESM). No additional mitigation actions are required beyond applying the official patches.

Description

ImageMagick versions before 7.1.2-31 and 6.9.13-56 contain a use-after-free vulnerability in the ImagesToBlob method due to improper pointer handling. This vulnerability can cause a denial of service by crashing the affected process. The issue is fixed in versions 7.1.2-31 and 6.9.13-56. Ubuntu security advisories confirm fixes are available for affected Ubuntu LTS releases, with updates provided through standard system updates or Ubuntu Pro Extended Security Maintenance (ESM).
