Foomatic is a system for connecting printer drivers with spooler systems
|
|
such as CUPS and LPD. The foomatic-filters package contains wrapper scripts
|
|
which are designed to be used with Foomatic.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is a vulnerability in the foomatic-filters package. This
|
|
vulnerability is due to insufficient checking of command-line parameters
|
|
and environment variables in the foomatic-rip filter.
|
|
</p>
|

|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
This vulnerability may allow both local and remote attackers to execute
|
|
arbitrary commands on the print server with the permissions of the spooler
|
|
(oftentimes the "lp" user).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All foomatic users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge sync
|
|
|
|
# emerge -pv ">=net-print/foomatic-3.0.2"
|
|
# emerge ">=net-print/foomatic-3.0.2"</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
PLEASE NOTE: You should update foomatic, instead of foomatic-filters. This
|
|
will help to ensure that all other foomatic components remain functional.
|
|
</p>
