A flaw was found in Ghostscript. The "Driver" parameter for the "opvp"/"oprp" device specifies the name of a dynamic library and allows any library to be loaded. This flaw allows a malicious user to send a specially crafted document that, when processed by Ghostscript, could potentially lead to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the Ghostscript process on the system.
