+ <p>Ghostscript is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability
+ because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before
+ copying it into a finite-sized buffer.</p>
+ <p>Exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to overwrite a
+ sensitive memory buffer with arbitrary data, potentially allowing them
+ to execute malicious machine code in the context of the affected
+ application. This vulnerability may facilitate the compromise of
+ affected computers.</p>
