Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'ghostscript'; package(s) announced via the CESA-2018:3760 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'ghostscript' package(s) announced via the CESA-2018:3760 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The Ghostscript suite contains utilities for rendering PostScript and PDF documents. Ghostscript translates PostScript code to common bitmap formats so that the code can be displayed or printed. Security Fix(es): * It was discovered that the ghostscript /invalidaccess checks fail under certain conditions. An attacker could possibly exploit this to bypass the - -dSAFER protection and, for example, execute arbitrary shell commands via a specially crafted PostScript document. (CVE-2018-16509) Red Hat would like to thank Tavis Ormandy (Google Project Zero) for reporting this issue. Affected Software/OS: ghostscript on CentOS 6. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 9.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
