Description
From redhat https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2019-10216 (still shown as 'reserved' at Mitre).
It was found that the .buildfont1 procedure did not properly secure its privileged calls, enabling scripts to bypass -dSAFER restrictions. An attacker could abuse this flaw by creating a specially crafted PostScript file that could escalate privileges and access files outside of restricted areas.
CVSS3 base rating 7.3 (high)
