Insight

Insight

Ghostscript is a program for displaying PostScript files, or printing them to non-PostScript printers. Chris Evans from the Google Security Team reported a stack-based buffer overflow flaw in Ghostscript's zseticcspace() function. An attacker could create a malicious PostScript file that would cause Ghostscript to execute arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2008-0411) These updated packages also fix a bug, which prevented the pxlmono printer driver from producing valid output on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. All users of ghostscript are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve these issues.
