(CVE-2009-0196)
USN-743-1 provided updated ghostscript and gs-gpl packages to fix two
security vulnerabilities. This update corrects the same vulnerabilities in
the gs-esp package.
Original advisory details:
It was discovered that Ghostscript contained multiple integer overflows in
its ICC color management library. If a user or automated system were
tricked into opening a crafted Postscript file, an attacker could cause a
denial of service or execute arbitrary code with privileges of the user
invoking the program. (CVE-2009-0583)
It was discovered that Ghostscript did not properly perform bounds
checking in its ICC color management library. If a user or automated
system were tricked into opening a crafted Postscript file, an attacker
could cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code with privileges
of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2009-0584)");
