Description Quality Assurance univentionstaff 2023-04-06 09:47:40 CEST
New Debian ghostscript 9.27~dfsg-2+deb10u7 fixes:
This update addresses the following issue:
* In Artifex Ghostscript through 10.01.0, there is a buffer overflow leading  to potential corruption of data internal to the PostScript interpreter, in  base/sbcp.c. This affects BCPEncode, BCPDecode, TBCPEncode, and TBCPDecode.  If the write buffer is filled to one byte less than full, and one then  tries to write an escaped character, two bytes are written.  (CVE-2023-28879)
