The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3636-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Ghostscript incorrectly handled certain PostScript files. An attacker could     possibly use this to cause a denial of server. (CVE-2016-10317)

    It was discovered that Ghostscript incorrectly handled certain PDF files. An attacker could possibly use     this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2018-10194)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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

  - Artifex jbig2dec 0.13 has a heap-based buffer over-read     leading to denial of service (application crash) or     disclosure of sensitive information from process     memory, because of an integer overflow in the     jbig2_decode_symbol_dict function in     jbig2_symbol_dict.c in libjbig2dec.a during operation     on a crafted .jb2 file.(CVE-2017-7885)
