Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Ghostscript, the GPL
PostScript/PDF interpreter, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary
code or information disclosure if a specially crafted Postscript file is
processed.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
9.05~dfsg-6.3+deb7u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your ghostscript packages.
