| Vetor | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Artifex Ghostscript versions prior to 9.24
Description
The issue is related to a type confusion in the
setcolor function, which can be exploited by supplying crafted PostScript files. This could potentially allow attackers to crash the interpreter or have other unspecified impacts. The vulnerability may also allow a remote attacker to affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information using a specially crafted PostScript file.Recommendations
For versions prior to 9.24, update to version 9.24 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the
setcolor function until a patch is available. Avoid using crafted PostScript files that could exploit the type confusion in the setcolor function.Correção
