Package : ghostscript CVE ID : CVE-2024-29506 CVE-2024-29507 CVE-2024-29508 CVE-2024-29509
Multiple security issues were discovered in Ghostscript, the GPL PostScript/PDF interpreter, which could result in denial of service and potentially the execution of arbitrary code if malformed document files are processed.
For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 10.0.0~dfsg-11+deb12u5.
We recommend that you upgrade your ghostscript packages.
For the detailed security status of ghostscript please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/ghostscript

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
