CVE_2017_8291
What it means
Embedded PostScript/EPS uses Ghostscript CVE-2017-8291 exploitation primitives.
Why it fires
CVE-2017-8291 is a Ghostscript -dSAFER bypass/type-confusion issue exploited through crafted EPS/PostScript content, including HWP documents that embed EPS in BinData streams. The rule covers both major static exploit shapes: the public .rsdparams plus /OutputFile(%pipe%) command execution path, and the .eqproc type-confusion path commonly hidden in '<HEX> cvx exec' staged HWP/EPS payloads.
