Source: imagemagick

Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for imagemagick.

CVE-2021-39212[0]:
| ImageMagick is free software delivered as a ready-to-run binary
| distribution or as source code that you may use, copy, modify, and
| distribute in both open and proprietary applications. In affected
| versions and in certain cases, Postscript files could be read and
| written when specifically excluded by a `module` policy in
| `policy.xml`. ex. <policy domain="module" rights="none"
| pattern="PS" />. The issue has been resolved in ImageMagick 7.1.0-7
| and in 6.9.12-22. Fortunately, in the wild, few users utilize the
| `module` policy and instead use the `coder` policy that is also our
| workaround recommendation: <policy domain="coder" rights="none"
| pattern="{PS,EPI,EPS,EPSF,EPSI}" />.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
