i don't think that this has been addressed yet. if you compare the redhat graphicsmagick patch [0] to the unstable imagemagick source, you will see that the additional limits to prevent these dos' are not included. for example, looking at coders/avs.c you can see that the new image size limits (AVS_WIDTH_LIMIT and AVS_HEIGHT_LIMIT) are not applied. the same can probably be found for the other affected files, but i have not checked. mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
