Notes

iconstantin

ghostscript 9.26~dfsg+0-0ubuntu0.16.04.14+esm2 for xenial was released to address this CVE but it was thereafter determined that the impacted code is not compiled and so the package is not vulnerable. still need to verify if commits from PR 1397 and 1398 should be included as part of our patch.
