Description:

   This update for ghostscript-library fixes the following issues:

   - CVE-2018-16511: A type confusion in "ztype" could be used by remote
     attackers able to supply crafted PostScript to crash the interpreter or
     possibly have unspecified other impact. (bsc#1107426)
   - CVE-2018-16540: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files to the
     builtin PDF14 converter could use a use-after-free in copydevice
     handling to crash the interpreter or possibly have unspecified other
     impact. (bsc#1107420)
   - CVE-2018-16541: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could
     use incorrect free logic in pagedevice replacement to crash the
     interpreter. (bsc#1107421)
   - CVE-2018-16542: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could
     use insufficient interpreter stack-size checking during error handling
     to crash the interpreter. (bsc#1107413)
   - CVE-2018-16509: Incorrect "restoration of privilege" checking during
     handling of /invalidaccess exceptions could be used by attackers able to
     supply crafted PostScript to execute code using the "pipe" instruction.
     (bsc#1107410
   - CVE-2018-16513: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could
     use a type confusion in the setcolor function to crash the interpreter
     or possibly have unspecified other impact. (bsc#1107412)
   - CVE-2018-15910: Attackers able to supply crafted PostScript files could
     use a type confusion in the LockDistillerParams parameter to crash the

   - CVE-2017-9611: The Ins_MIRP function allowed remote attackers to cause a

     (bsc#1050893)
