Mandriva Security Advisories MDKA-2005:045 : ghostscript

 

Updated ghostrscript packages fix various bugs

October 11th, 2005

 

New ghostscript packages are now available that provide ghostscript 8.15.1 final and provide a number of bug fixes, including:

 

A fix for vertical japanese text.

 

A memory overflow in the "lips4" driver was fixed.

 

A double-free in gsdevice.c was fixed.

 

A SEGV in the "inferno" driver was fixed; this was because the struct "inferno_device" was not created but it was accessed to its elements.

 

The shared X11 driver was not built with the correct linker command (CCLD instead of CC_SHARED).

 

The "opvp" driver incorrectly assumed that CODESET was supported on all platforms that supported iconv.

 

Support in the "cups" driver for CUPS_CSPACE_RGBW colorspace was added.

 

Other fixes are also included in these new packages.

 

 

The released versions of Mandriva GNU/Linux affected are:

  • 10.2
  • 2006.0
