Description:

This update for ghostscript-library fixes the following issues:

  • CVE-2018-16511: A type confusion in "ztype" could be used by remote attackers able to supply crafted PostScript to crash the interpreter or possibly have unspecified other impact. (bsc#1107426)
  • CVE-2018-16540: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files to the builtin PDF14 converter could use a use-after-free in copydevice handling to crash the interpreter or possibly have unspecified other impact. (bsc#1107420)
  • CVE-2018-16541: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could use incorrect free logic in pagedevice replacement to crash the interpreter. (bsc#1107421)
  • CVE-2018-16542: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could use insufficient interpreter stack-size checking during error handling to crash the interpreter. (bsc#1107413)
  • CVE-2018-16509: Incorrect "restoration of privilege" checking during handling of /invalidaccess exceptions could be used by attackers able to supply crafted PostScript to execute code using the "pipe" instruction. (bsc#1107410
  • CVE-2018-16513: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could use a type confusion in the setcolor function to crash the interpreter or possibly have unspecified other impact. (bsc#1107412)
  • CVE-2018-15910: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could use a type confusion in the LockDistillerParams parameter to crash the interpreter or execute code. (bsc#1106173)
  • CVE-2017-9611: The Ins_MIRP function allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted document. (bsc#1050893)
