"A vulnerability was discovered in Ghostscript, the GPL PostScript/PDF
interpreter, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code or
denial of service if a specially crafted Postscript file is processed.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
9.05~dfsg-6.3+deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your ghostscript packages.

to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues.");
