It does make me wonder how much this could be hardened by, to put it in an extremely crude way, taking the current imagemagick code base and throwing a bunch of adversarial SOTA LLMs at it to discover 'bugs' and exploits of this nature until it can be coaxed into a less dangerous state. Or even using the LLMs to fully port its functionality to a memory safe language. Would take a while to get all the changes approved and then into various distribution imagemagick packages.
