Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in gdevwpr2.c in Ghostscript 9.04, when processing the OutputFile device parameter, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long file name in a PostScript document. NOTE: as of 20120314, the developer was not able to reproduce the issue and disputed it

** EN DISPUTA ** Un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica (heap) en gdevwpr2.c en Ghostscript v9.04, al procesar el parámetro de dispositivo 'OutputFile', permite ejecutar código de su elección a atacantes remotos con cierta ayuda de un usuario local a través de un nombre de archivo largo en un documento PostScript. NOTA: a partir de 14/03/2012, el desarrollador no ha podido reproducir el problema y por tanto lo pone en duda.
