Privilege Escalation

The Ghostscript suite is susceptible to privilege escalation. It is possible because it does not successfully validate the ghostscript /invalidaccess under certain conditions, allowing to bypass the -dSAFER protection such as allowing the arbitrary shell commands execution through malicious...

Arbitrary Command Execution

ghostscript is vulnerable to arbitrary command execution. An incomplete fix for CVE-2018-16509 allows an attacker to exploit another variant of the vulnerability and bypass the -dSAFER protection to execute arbitrary command via malicious PostScript documents...

Authorization Bypass

ghostscript is vulnerable to authorization bypass. An attacker is able to bypass .tempfile restrictions to write files onto the system using malicious PostScript files...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

ghostscript is vulnerable to denial of service DoS attacks. The vulnerability exists as the memgetbitsrectangle function in Artifex Software, Inc. Ghostscript 9.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference via a crafted PostScript document...

Remote Code Execution (RCE)

ghostscript is vulnerable to remote code execution. It was found that ghostscript did not properly validate the parameters passed to the .rsdparams and .eqproc functions. During its execution, a specially crafted PostScript document could execute code in the context of the ghostscript process,...

Information Disclosure

ghostscript is vulnerable to information disclosure attacks. The vulnerability exists as the getenv and filenameforall functions in Ghostscript 9.10 ignore the "-dSAFER" argument, which allows remote attackers to read data via a crafted postscript file...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

Ghostscript is vulnerable to denial of service. An integer overflow, which results in a heap-based buffer overflow in the icmLutallocate function in icclib allows an attacker to crash the application or possibly execute arbitrary code via a malicious PostScript or PDF file with embedded images...
