The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has ghostscript packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
psi/zfile.c in Artifex Ghostscript before 9.21rc1 permits the status command even if -dSAFER is used, which might allow remote attackers to determine the existence and size of arbitrary files, a similar issue to CVE-2016-7977. (CVE-2018-11645)
A flaw was found in ghostscript, versions 9.x before 9.28, in the setsystemparams procedure where it did not properly secure its privileged calls, enabling scripts to bypass -dSAFER
restrictions. A specially crafted PostScript file could disable security protection and then have access to the file system, or execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2019-14813)
A flaw was found in, ghostscript versions prior to 9.28, in the .pdf_hook_DSC_Creator procedure where it did not properly secure its privileged calls, enabling scripts to bypass -dSAFER
restrictions. A specially crafted PostScript file could disable security protection and then have access to the file system, or execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2019-14811)
A flaw was found in, ghostscript versions prior to 9.28, in the .pdfexectoken and other procedures where it did not properly secure its privileged calls, enabling scripts to bypass -dSAFER
restrictions. A specially crafted PostScript file could disable security protection and then have access to the file system, or execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2019-14817)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
