[SECURITY] [DLA 1992-1] ghostscript security update



Package        : ghostscript
Version        : 9.26a~dfsg-0+deb8u6
CVE ID         : CVE-2019-14869


Manfred Paul and Lukas Schauer reported that the .charkeys procedure in
Ghostscript, the GPL PostScript/PDF interpreter, does not properly
restrict privileged calls, which could result in bypass of file system
restrictions of the dSAFER sandbox.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
9.26a~dfsg-0+deb8u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your ghostscript packages.
