Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for imagemagick.

CVE-2018-16323[0]:
| ReadXBMImage in coders/xbm.c in ImageMagick before 7.0.8-9 leaves data
| uninitialized when processing an XBM file that has a negative pixel
| value. If the affected code is used as a library loaded into a process
| that includes sensitive information, that information sometimes can be
| leaked via the image data.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
