CVE-2009-0584 describes a critical vulnerability in the International Color Consortium (ICC) Format library (icclib), affecting Ghostscript 8.64 and earlier, and Argyll Color Management System (CMS) 1.0.3 and earlier. This flaw allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code by processing a crafted image file with large integer values for certain sizes within an ICC profile in PostScript or PDF files. With a CVSS score of 9.3, this vulnerability is highly severe due to its network-based attack vector, medium attack complexity, and complete impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Despite its high severity, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
