Hi Cam,

I agree with all you wrote. For the time being I use as workaround to 
downgrade the imagemagick packages using

blackbox:~# cat /usr/local/sbin/imagemagick-gscan2pdf.sh
#!/bin/bash

echo "Downgrading imagemagick for operation with gscan"

apt-get install imagemagick=8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u2 imagemagick-
common=8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u2 imagemagick-6.q16=8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u2 
libmagickcore-6.q16-2=8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u2 
libmagickwand-6.q16-2=8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u2
blackbox:~# 

temporarily (which brings all the fixed security issues back) and do an "apt-
get upgrade" after I have finished gscan2pdf.

I cannot tell if it works for your usecase, but I thought it is worth sharing.

Kind regards
Rainer
