EulerOS Virtualization 3.0.6.6 : ghostscript (EulerOS-SA-2024-1649)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 197257

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the ghostscript packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - 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)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected ghostscript packages.
