Upgrade Centos:7 ghostscript-cups to version 0:9.07-29.el7_5.2 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ghostscript-cups package and not the ghostscript-cups package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
The set_text_distance function in devices/vector/gdevpdts.c in the pdfwrite component in Artifex Ghostscript through 9.22 does not prevent overflows in text-positioning calculation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PDF document.
