Authored by Ubuntu | Site security.ubuntu.com

Ubuntu Security Notice 3142-2 - USN-3142-1 fixed vulnerabilities in ImageMagick. The security fixes introduced a regression with text labels and a regression with the text coder. This update fixes the problem. It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain malformed image files. If a user or automated system using ImageMagick were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. Various other issues were also addressed.
