ALAS2023-2023-362


Amazon Linux 2023 Security Advisory: ALAS-2023-362
Advisory Release Date: 2023-09-27 21:05 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2023-10-03 20:50 Pacific
Severity: Important

Issue Overview:

In Artifex Ghostscript through 10.01.2, gdevijs.c in GhostPDL can lead to remote code execution via crafted PostScript documents because they can switch to the IJS device, or change the IjsServer parameter, after SAFER has been activated. NOTE: it is a documented risk that the IJS server can be specified on a gs command line (the IJS device inherently must execute a command to start the IJS server). (CVE-2023-43115)
