Virtuozzo provides no description for VZLSA advisories. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has ghostscript packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - It was found that the forceput operator could be     extracted from the DefineResource method. A specially     crafted PostScript file could use this flaw in order to,     for example, have access to the file system outside of     the constrains imposed by -dSAFER. (CVE-2019-3838)

  - It was found that the superexec operator was available     in the internal dictionary. A specially crafted     PostScript file could use this flaw in order to, for     example, have access to the file system outside of the     constrains imposed by -dSAFER. (CVE-2019-3835)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - It was found that the superexec operator was available in the internal dictionary in ghostscript before     9.27. A specially crafted PostScript file could use this flaw in order to, for example, have access to the     file system outside of the constrains imposed by -dSAFER. (CVE-2019-3835)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
