Synopsis
========
A format string vulnerability exists in ImageMagick that may allow an
attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Background
==========
ImageMagick is a collection of tools and libraries for manipulating a
wide variety of image formats.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected

Description
===========
Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team has identified a
flaw in the handling of filenames by the ImageMagick utilities.
Impact
======
Successful exploitation may disrupt web applications that depend on
ImageMagick for image processing, potentially executing arbitrary code.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution

All ImageMagick users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/imagemagick-6.2.0.4"
