 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2014:076
 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : a2ps
 Date    : April 10, 2014
 Affected: Business Server 1.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 Updated a2ps packages fix security vulnerability:
 
 Brian M. Carlson reported that a2ps&#039;s fixps script does not invoke gs
 with the -dSAFER option. Consequently executing fixps on a malicious
 PostScript file could result in files being deleted or arbitrary
 commands being executed with the privileges of the user running fixps
 (CVE-2014-0466).
