{"id":"USN-3272-2","summary":"ghostscript regression","details":"USN-3272-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Ghostscript. This change introduced\na regression when the DELAYBIND feature is used with the eqproc\ncommand. This update fixes the problem.\n\nWe apologize for the inconvenience.\n\nOriginal advisory details:\n\n It was discovered that Ghostscript improperly handled parameters to\n the rsdparams and eqproc commands. An attacker could use these to\n craft a malicious document that could disable -dSAFER protections,\n thereby allowing the execution of arbitrary code, or cause a denial\n of service (application crash). (CVE-2017-8291)\n\n Kamil Frankowicz discovered a use-after-free vulnerability in the\n color management module of Ghostscript. An attacker could use this\n to cause a denial of service (application crash). (CVE-2016-10217)\n\n Kamil Frankowicz discovered a divide-by-zero error in the scan\n conversion code in Ghostscript. An attacker could use this to cause\n a denial of service (application crash). (CVE-2016-10219)\n\n Kamil Frankowicz discovered multiple NULL pointer dereference errors in\n Ghostscript. An attacker could use these to cause a denial of service\n (application crash). (CVE-2016-10220, CVE-2017-5951, CVE-2017-7207)\n","modified":"2026-04-22T09:34:56.003430Z","published":"2017-05-16T18:58:49Z","references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-3272-2"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://launchpad.net/bugs/1687614"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"ghostscript","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/ghostscript@9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.9?arch=source&distro=trusty"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.9"}]}],"versions":["9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu2","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu3","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu4","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu5","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu6","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu7","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu8","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu9","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.1","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.2","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.3","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.4","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.5","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.6","9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.7"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"No subscription required","binaries":[{"binary_version":"9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.9","binary_name":"ghostscript"},{"binary_version":"9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.9","binary_name":"ghostscript-x"},{"binary_version":"9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.9","binary_name":"libgs9"},{"binary_version":"9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.9","binary_name":"libgs9-common"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/usn/USN-3272-2.json","cves_map":{"ecosystem":"Ubuntu:14.04:LTS","cves":[]}}},{"package":{"name":"ghostscript","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/ghostscript@9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.6?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.6"}]}],"versions":["9.16~dfsg~0-0ubuntu3","9.16~dfsg~0-0ubuntu4","9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu1","9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2","9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.2","9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.3","9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.4"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"No subscription required","binaries":[{"binary_version":"9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.6","binary_name":"ghostscript"},{"binary_version":"9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.6","binary_name":"ghostscript-x"},{"binary_version":"9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.6","binary_name":"libgs9"},{"binary_version":"9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.6","binary_name":"libgs9-common"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/usn/USN-3272-2.json","cves_map":{"ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","cves":[]}}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
