Doc Text:
A flaw was found in ImageMagick. An attacker could bypass administrator-defined security policies by convincing the application to process specially crafted input that triggers a delegate invocation. This issue occurs due to incorrect parsing of delegate commands, allowing programs explicitly restricted or blocked in the security configuration to be executed.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-25 13:34:22 UTC
ImageMagick before 6.9.13-58 and 7.x before 7.1.2-33 incorrectly parses delegate invocations, which can allow an executable blocked in policy.xml to still run. An attacker who gets ImageMagick to process input that triggers a delegate invocation can bypass the administrator-defined policy and execute the blocked program.
