Releases

• Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Packages

• ruby-image-processing - High-level image processing wrapper for libvips and ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick

Details

It was discovered that ImageProcessing incorrectly handled series of operations
that are coming from unsanitised inputs. If a user or an automated system were
tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could
possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code.

Update instructions

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 22.04

• ruby-image-processing - 1.10.3-1ubuntu0.22.04.1

Ubuntu 20.04

• ruby-image-processing - 1.10.3-1ubuntu0.20.04.1

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
