Synopsis:          Important: ghostscript security update
Advisory ID:       SLSA-2017:1230-1
Issue Date:        2017-05-12
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2017-8291
--

Security Fix(es):

* It was found that ghostscript did not properly validate the parameters
passed to the .rsdparams and .eqproc functions. During its execution, a
specially crafted PostScript document could execute code in the context of
the ghostscript process, bypassing the -dSAFER protection. (CVE-2017-8291)
