What fixes it

  • 7.1.2-32ImageMagick, c/c++GitHub

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to 7.1.2-32, delegate symlink cleanup does not check the MAGICK_SHRED_PASSES environment variable, allowing a local privileged workflow to overwrite a file with random data. This issue is fixed in version 7.1.2-32.
