How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 gimp:flatpak/ghostscript-x11.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gimp:flatpak/ghostscript-x11 package and not the gimp:flatpak/ghostscript-x11 package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in Artifex Ghostscript before 10.03.1. Path traversal and command execution can occur (via a crafted PostScript document) because of path reduction in base/gpmisc.c. For example, restrictions on use of %pipe% can be bypassed via the aa/../%pipe%command# output filename.
