The remote host is missing an update for the 'texlive' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. TeX Live is an implementation of TeX. The texlive packages provide a number of utilities, including dvips. Some security issues affect t1lib code, causing a crash or potential arbitrary code execution

  formatting commands as input, and creates a typesetter-independent DeVice
  Independent (DVI) file as output. The texlive packages provide a number of
  utilities, including dvips.

  TeX Live embeds a copy of t1lib. The t1lib library allows you to rasterize
  bitmaps from PostScript Type 1 fonts. The following issues affect t1lib
  code:

  Two heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way t1lib processed
  Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) files. If a specially-crafted font file was opened
  by a TeX Live utility, it could cause the utility to crash or, potentially,
  execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the utility.
  (CVE-2010-2642, CVE-2011-0433)

  An invalid pointer dereference flaw was found in t1lib. A specially-crafted
  font file could, when opened, cause a TeX Live utility to crash or,
  potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
  the utility. (CVE-2011-0764)

  A use-after-free flaw was found in t1lib. A specially-crafted font file
  could, when opened, cause a TeX Live utility to crash or, potentially,
  execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the utility.
  (CVE-2011-1553)

  An off-by-one flaw was found in t1lib. A specially-crafted font file could,
  when opened, cause a TeX Live utility to crash or, potentially, execute
  arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the utility.
  (CVE-2011-1554)

  An out-of-bounds memory read flaw was found in t1lib. A specially-crafted
  font file could, when opened, cause a TeX Live utility to crash.
  (CVE-2011-1552)

  Red Hat would like to thank the Evince development team for reporting
  CVE-2010-2642. Upstream acknowledges Jon Larimer of IBM X-Force as the
  original reporter of CVE-2010-2642.

  All users of texlive are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
  which contain backported patches to correct these issues.");
