 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2009:311

 Package : ghostscript
 Date    : December 3, 2009
 Affected: 2008.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 Multiple security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed
 in ghostscript:
 
 A buffer underflow in Ghostscript's CCITTFax decoding filter allows
 remote attackers to cause denial of service and possibly to execute
 arbitrary by using a crafted PDF file (CVE-2007-6725).
 
 Buffer overflow in Ghostscript's BaseFont writer module allows
 remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly to execute
 arbitrary code via a crafted Postscript file (CVE-2008-6679).
 
 Multiple interger overflows in Ghostsript's International Color
 Consortium Format Library (icclib) allows attackers to cause denial
 of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) and
 possibly execute arbirary code by using either a PostScript or PDF
 file with crafte embedded images (CVE-2009-0583, CVE-2009-0584).
 
 Multiple interger overflows in Ghostsript's International Color
 Consortium Format Library (icclib) allows attackers to cause denial
 of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) and
 possibly execute arbirary code by using either a PostScript or PDF
 file with crafte embedded images. Note: this issue exists because of
 an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-0583 (CVE-2009-0792).
 
 Heap-based overflow in Ghostscript's JBIG2 decoding library allows
 attackers to cause denial of service and possibly to execute arbitrary
 code by using a crafted PDF file (CVE-2009-0196).
 
 Multiple integer overflows in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow
 context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via a crafted
 image file, related to integer multiplication for memory allocation
 (CVE-2008-3520).
 
 Buffer overflow in the jas_stream_printf function in
 libjasper/base/jas_stream.c in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow
 context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via
 vectors related to the mif_hdr_put function and use of vsprintf
 (CVE-2008-3522).
 
 Previousely the ghostscript packages were statically built against
 a bundled and private copy of the jasper library. This update makes
 ghostscript link against the shared system jasper library which
 makes it easier to address presumptive future security issues in the
 jasper library.
 
 Packages for 2008.0 are being provided due to extended support for
 Corporate products.
 
 This update provides fixes for that vulnerabilities.
