  Multiple integer overflow flaws which could lead to heap-based buffer
  overflows, as well as multiple insufficient input validation flaws, were
  found in Ghostscript's International Color Consortium Format library
  (icclib). Using specially-crafted ICC profiles, an attacker could create a
  malicious PostScript or PDF file with embedded images which could cause
  Ghostscript to crash, or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when opened
  by the victim. (CVE-2009-0583, CVE-2009-0584)
