Description Adam Mariš 2017-07-28 08:47:58 UTC
psi/ztoken.c in Artifex Ghostscript 9.21 mishandles references to the
scanner state structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified
other impact via a crafted PostScript document, related to an
out-of-bounds read in the igc_reloc_struct_ptr function in psi/igc.c.
