When allocating a buffer device, it relies on an init_device_procs defined for the device that uses it as a prototype that depends upon the number of bits per pixel. For bpp > 64, mem_x_device is used and does not have an init_device_procs defined. This flaw allows an attacker to parse a large number of bits (more than 64 bits per pixel), which triggers a NULL pointer dereference flaw, causing an application to crash." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference", "cweId": "CWE-476" } ] } ] }, "affects": { "vendor": { "vendor_data": [ { "vendor_name": "n/a", "product": { "product_data": [ { "product_name": "GhostScript", "version": { "version_data": [ { "version_affected": "=", "version_value": "Affects in Ghostscript v9.55.0" } ] } } ] } } ] } }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=704945", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=704945" }, { "url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2095261", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2095261" }, { "url": "http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=ghostpdl.git%3Bh=ae1061d948d88667bdf51d47d918c4684d0f67df", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=ghostpdl.git%3Bh=ae1061d948d88667bdf51d47d918c4684d0f67df" }, { "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/ERSZX5LKDWAHZWJYBMP2E2UHOPUCDEGV/", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/ERSZX5LKDWAHZWJYBMP2E2UHOPUCDEGV/" }, { "url": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202211-11", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202211-11" }, { "url": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202309-03", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202309-03" } ] } }
