There are 2 open security issues in bullseye.
2 issues left for the package maintainer to handle:
- CVE-2023-38559:
(postponed; to be fixed through a stable update)
A buffer overflow flaw was found in base/gdevdevn.c:1973 in devn_pcx_write_rle() in ghostscript. This issue may allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service via outputting a crafted PDF file for a DEVN device with gs.
- CVE-2023-43115:
(needs triaging)
In Artifex Ghostscript through 10.01.2, gdevijs.c in GhostPDL can lead to remote code execution via crafted PostScript documents because they can switch to the IJS device, or change the IjsServer parameter, after SAFER has been activated. NOTE: it is a documented risk that the IJS server can be specified on a gs command line (the IJS device inherently must execute a command to start the IJS server).
You can find information about how to handle these issues in the security team's documentation.
