Update on the Discourse side, we now run all external binaries, including magick via a landlock sandbox.

The gem we use is here: https://github.com/discourse/ruby-landlock highly recommend all Rubyists out there consider this. We are also in the process of moving away from Magick to Vips (which also runs in a sandbox, not in process)

HEIF is patched, but I doubt this is the last buffer overflow in HEIF, I will not be surprised if in the upcoming weeks or months someone will discover something in libpng or some other native image library. Given where stuff is at, defense in depth is critical.

Another thing worth mentioning to all self hosters, always be updating! The rate of CVEs this year across all open source software is through the roof, self hosting now is double scary, you need to have some routines setup to update monthly if not weekly.
