Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for ghostscript. I can agree
the severity is not exaclty matching, as for 9.50 itself, it's not
anymore directly exploitable (unless with -dOLDSAFER). Still it cannot
be considred fixed, only after applying [1].
CVE-2019-14869[0]:
|-dSAFER escape in .charkeys
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
