[Bug 1385903] Re: imagemagick crashes with "stack smashing detected"

[Tapani Tarvainen]

To resolve the either-or above, I built ImageMagick 6.8.9-9 from source
in a Precise machine (where the packaged version does not have the bug)
and it crashes there, too.

So it seems the bug is in ImageMagick itself and it was introduced
between versions 6.6.9 (in Precise) and 6.7.7 (in Trusty).

Title:
  imagemagick crashes with "stack smashing detected"

Status in “imagemagick” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Every now and then imagemagick convert crashes like this:

  $ convert -rotate 270 003632r270.jpg koe.jpg
  *** stack smashing detected ***: convert terminated
  Aborted (core dumped)

  This is perfectly reproducible and happens in every Ubuntu 14.04 box
  I have at hand that has ImageMagick in it, but not in 12.04.
  I'll attach the file used in above example (I have several more
  in case someone wants them).
