Doc Text:
A flaw was found in ImageMagick, a software used for editing and manipulating digital images. This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject malicious code into PostScript files due to improper input sanitization in the PostScript coders. When a specially crafted file is processed by a printer or viewer, this injected code can be executed, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. A similar issue exists in the HTML encoder, where improper escaping of strings could allow for arbitrary HTML injection.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-02-24 02:01:59 UTC 
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, the ps coders, responsible for writing PostScript files, fails to sanitize the input before writing it into the PostScript header.  An attacker can provide a malicous file and inject arbitrary PostScript code. When the resulting file is processed by a printer or a viewer (like Ghostscript), the injected code is interpreted and executed. The html encoder does not properly escape strings that are written to in the html document. An attacker can provide a malicious file and injection arbitrary html code. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch.
