https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-7977
02 Dec 2016 — Ghostscript before 9.21 might allow remote attackers to bypass the SAFER mode protection mechanism and consequently read arbitrary files via the use of the .libfile operator in a crafted postscript document. Ghostscript anterior a la versión 9.21 podría permitir que los atacantes remotos eludieran el mecanismo de protección del modo SAFER y, en consecuencia, leyeran archivos arbitrarios mediante el uso del operador .libfile en un documento Postscript manipulado.
