+ <title>Netpbm: Arbitrary code execution in pstopnm</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ The pstopnm utility, part of the Netpbm tools, contains a vulnerability
+ which can potentially result in the execution of arbitrary code.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Netpbm is a package of 220 graphics programs and a programming
+ libraries, including pstopnm. pstopnm is a tool which converts
+ PostScript files to PNM image files.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Max Vozeler reported that pstopnm calls the GhostScript interpreter on
+ untrusted PostScript files without specifying the -dSAFER option, to
+ convert a PostScript file into a PBM, PGM, or PNM file.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could craft a malicious PostScript file and entice a user
+ to run pstopnm on it, resulting in the execution of arbitrary commands
+ with the permissions of the user running pstopnm.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Netpbm users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose media-libs/netpbm</code>
+ </resolution>
