Hi,
I don't quite see why that would be a security issue.  Crashing on a
corrupted image is not nice, but the result is hardly different from
failing with a proper error message.  The division by zero is not
something that can be exploited further.

The package hasn't yet been a part of a stable release, though, thus
either way a regular upload to unstable should be enough.

If there's anything else I need to do, please shout.
