Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ghostscript' package(s) announced via the DLA-1992-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: 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.
