Descriptions

Ghostscript 8.64, 8.70, and possibly other versions allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PostScript file containing unlimited recursive procedure invocations, which trigger memory corruption in the stack of the interpreter.

Ghostscript v8.64, v8.70 y puede que también otras versiones, permite a atacantes dependientes del contexto ejecutar código de su elección mediante un fichero PostScript que contenga invocaciones ilimitadas y recursivas a procedimientos, esto provoca una corrupción de memoria en la pila del intérprete.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in GPL Ghostscript, the worst of which may allow execution of arbitrary code. Versions prior to 9.10-r2 are affected.
