   An update that solves two vulnerabilities and has one
   errata is now available.

Description:


   This update for ghostscript-library fixes a regression in
   Ghostscript 8.62  where it did no longer use fonts
   specified via FONTPATH=/path/to/font when  they are not
   considered to be resource fonts.

   In addition, the following low impact security fixes are
   included:

   * CVE-2009-3743: Off-by-one error in the TrueType
   bytecode interpreter in Ghostscript before 8.71 allowed
   remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory
   corruption) via a malformed TrueType font in a document.
   * CVE-2010-4054: The gs_type2_interpret function in
   Ghostscript allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of
   service (incorrect pointer dereference and application
   crash) via crafted font data in a compressed data stream.
