<p>I'm not pro in web but I think a lot of web sites rely on imagemagick tools for resize/convert files.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Yea. Using it as a thumbnail creator for a public web application is a threat vector that needs the patching.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Using it on the desktop to modify/mangle images from the command line is not a cause for panic.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Not worried at all.<br>
I don't run any services that allow unknown uploaded files to be run<br>
through ImageMagick.<br>
<br>
I use ImageMagick a few times a week.<br>
<br>
Before going crazy about this stuff ... look at the required attack vector.<br>
