CVE-2018-19134 (GCVE-0-2018-19134)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2018-12-20 22:00 – Updated: 2024-08-05 11:30

Summary

In Artifex Ghostscript through 9.25, the setpattern operator did not properly validate certain types. A specially crafted PostScript document could exploit this to crash Ghostscript or, possibly, execute arbitrary code in the context of the Ghostscript process. This is a type confusion issue because of failure to check whether the Implementation of a pattern dictionary was a structure type.
