The intersect function in base/gxfill.c in Artifex Software, Inc. Ghostscript
9.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero
error and application crash) via a crafted file.

The gs_makewordimagedevice function in base/gsdevmem.c in Artifex Software, Inc.
Ghostscript 9.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL
pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted file that is
mishandled in the PDF Transparency module.

The mem_get_bits_rectangle function in base/gdevmem.c in Artifex Software, Inc.
Ghostscript 9.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL

+Subject: [PATCH] fix crash with bad data supplied to makeimagedevice
+
+Bug #697450 "Null pointer dereference in gx_device_finalize()"
+
+The problem here is that the code to finalise a device unconditionally
+frees the icc_struct member of the device structure. However this
+particular (weird) device is not setup as a normal device, probably
+because its very, very ancient. Its possible for the initialisation
+of the device to abort with an error before calling gs_make_mem_device()
+which is where the icc_struct member gets allocated (or set to NULL).
+
+If that happens, then the cleanup code tries to free the device, which
+calls finalize() which tries to free a garbage pointer.
+
+Setting the device memory to 0x00 after we allocate it means that the
+icc_struct member will be NULL< and our memory manager allows for that
+happily enough, which avoids the problem.
