ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 6.9.13-48 and 7.1.2-23, the distributed pixel cache was originally designed to operate without a challenge–response authentication model. This has been changed in versions 6.9.13-48 and 7.1.2-23.
