Subject: Re: GraphicsMagick heap out of bounds write issue
I would like to ammend this report in that the situation is a read
beyond an allocated heap buffer rather than a write beyond the end of
an allocated heap buffer as was originally reported. The application
may crash but should not be otherwise compromised.
