Ghostscript Remote Denial-of-Service Vulnerability
Ghostscript is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to properly validate user-supplied input. Exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to crash the application and possibly to execute code, but this has not been confirmed.
Mitigation:
Users should apply the appropriate patches from their vendor or upgrade to the latest version of Ghostscript.
