NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream imagemagick-6 package and not the imagemagick-6 package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

ImageMagick before 7.1.2-26 and 6.9.13-x before 6.9.13-51 contains a policy bypass vulnerability in the -script operation due to missing security policy checks. This allows reading files from paths that are otherwise disallowed by the configured security policy.
