The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ghostscript' package(s) announced via the DLA-3096-1 advisory. A heap-based buffer over write vulnerability was found in GhostScript, the GPL PostScript/PDF interpreter. An attacker could trick a user to open a crafted PDF file, triggering the heap buffer overflow that could lead to memory corruption or a denial of service. For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 9.27~dfsg-2+deb10u6. We recommend that you upgrade your ghostscript packages
