- -------------------------------------------------------------------------     Debian Security Advisory DSA-5760-1                   [email protected]     https://www.debian.org/security/                     Salvatore Bonaccorso     August 29, 2024                       https://www.debian.org/security/faq

Package        : ghostscript     CVE ID         : CVE-2024-29506 CVE-2024-29507 CVE-2024-29508 CVE-2024-29509

Multiple security issues were discovered in Ghostscript, the GPL     PostScript/PDF interpreter, which could result in denial of service and     potentially the execution of arbitrary code if malformed document files     are processed.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 10.0.0~dfsg-11+deb12u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your ghostscript packages.

For the detailed security status of ghostscript please refer to its     security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/ghostscript

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
