Package: ghostscript
Severity: grave
Tags: security patch

Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for ghostscript.

CVE-2009-0792[0]:
| Multiple integer overflows in icc.c in the International Color
| Consortium (ICC) Format library (aka icclib), as used in Ghostscript
| 8.64 and earlier and Argyll Color Management System (CMS) 1.0.3 and
| earlier, allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of
| service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly
| execute arbitrary code by using a device file for a translation
| request that operates on a crafted image file and targets a certain
| "native color space," related to an ICC profile in a (1) PostScript or
| (2) PDF file with embedded images.  NOTE: this issue exists because of
| an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-0583.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE id in your changelog entry.

Patch attached.
