Created ghostscript tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 2250779] Is there a particular reason why this CVE from 2020 is filed now? Why is it marked "Affects: fedora-all" if it is marked "Fixed In Version: ghostscript 9.27" at the same time? That version is from 2019, and we had it in Fedora 29 already. |
