Descriptions

psi/ztoken.c in Artifex Ghostscript 9.21 mishandles references to the scanner state structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PostScript document, related to an out-of-bounds read in the igc_reloc_struct_ptr function in psi/igc.c.

El archivo psi/ztoken.c en Artifex Ghostscript versión 9.21, maneja inapropiadamente las referencias a la estructura de estado del escáner, que permite a los atacantes remotos generar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo de aplicación) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado por medio de un documento PostScript creado, relacionado con una lectura fuera de limites de la función igc_reloc_struct_ptr en el archivo psi/igc.c.
