==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
– Ubuntu 16.10

Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in ImageMagick.
Software Description:
– imagemagick: Image manipulation programs and library
Details:
It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain malformed
image files. If a user or automated system using ImageMagick were tricked
into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit this to
