Comment (by Clorith):

 GhostScript is needed for core functionality relating to PDF processing of
 thumbnails for example. I'm not sure what security issues exist here that
 you are referring to, but if there are any you know of this should be
 reported to us via our HackerOne project at
 https://hackerone.com/wordpress.

 The module check is also labeled as `Performance`, not security related,
 and is a recommendation, not a critical issue as it's not required for
 functionality, just improves it.
