Hello Seth,

thanks for your answer. My expectations was that flaws are fixed in code and 
it's not necessary to block filetypes. Unfortunately in 
hosting/webapplications/shops ImageMagick+Ghostscript are widely used in 
Standardsoftware. Minutes after Updating some Servers we had reports about 
failing conversions.
We use apparmor-profiles to protect our internal structure. User itself is only 
able to read some needed paths and write to his own home. So this risk should 
be ok for us unless there is an exploit to gain root privileges. If i 
understand Tavis Ormandy's statement the right way, more flaws are highly 
probable.

Thanks,
Hajo
