    Synopsis
    ========

    A vulnerability in ImageMagick's handling of PDF was discovered
    possibly allowing code execution.

    Background
    ==========

    A collection of tools and libraries for many image formats.

    Affected packages
    =================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected

    Description
    ===========

    A flaw in ImageMagick's handling of password protected PDFs was
    discovered.

    Impact
    ======

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF
    using ImageMagick possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code
    with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.

    ==========

    Do not open untrusted PDFs.

    Resolution
    ==========

    All ImageMagick 7 users should upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=media-gfx/imagemagick-7.0.10.41-r1"
