The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-2989 advisory.

  - Artifex Ghostscript through 9.26 mishandles .completefont. NOTE: this issue exists because of an     incomplete fix for CVE-2019-3839. (CVE-2019-25059)

  - It was found that in ghostscript some privileged operators remained accessible from various places after     the CVE-2019-6116 fix. A specially crafted PostScript file could use this flaw in order to, for example,     have access to the file system outside of the constrains imposed by -dSAFER. Ghostscript versions before     9.27 are vulnerable. (CVE-2019-3839)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5396-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Ghostscript incorrectly handled certain PostScript files. If a user or automated     system were tricked into processing a specially crafted file, a remote attacker could possibly use this     issue to access arbitrary files, execute arbitrary code, or cause a denial of service.
