Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/OSV-2023-970/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/OSV-2023-970/index.md)","id":"OSV-2023-970","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/OSV-2023-970/index.md","name":"OSV-2023-970","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"unknown","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ghostscript library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A heap-use-after-free vulnerability in Ghostscript allows attackers to cause denial of service or potentially execute code via crafted input.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"OSS-Fuzz report: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=63013\n\n```\nCrash type: Heap-use-after-free READ 8\nCrash state:\ngx_device_forward_finalize\ngx_device_finalize\nalloc_restore_step_in\n```","ecosystems":["OSS-Fuzz"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Heap-use-after-free in gx_device_forward_finalize","id":"OSV-2023-970","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"advisory","links":{"ecosystem":"OSS-Fuzz","product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2023"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"OSS-Fuzz","fixed":[],"introduced":[],"last_affected":[],"package":"ghostscript","purl":"pkg:generic/ghostscript","source":"OSV-2023-970"}],"products":null,"published":"2023-10-06","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"OSS-Fuzz","prefix":"OSV"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":"A heap-use-after-free vulnerability in Ghostscript allows attackers to cause denial of service or potentially execute code via crafted input.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/OSV-2023-970/"}
