|
|
Thomas Pollet reported a possible integer overflow vulnerability in the
|
|
PNG image handling in the file filter/image-png.c.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A malicious user might be able to execute arbitrary code with the
|
|
privileges of the user running CUPS (usually lp), or cause a Denial of
|
|
Service by sending a specially crafted PNG image to the print server.
|
|
The vulnerability is exploitable via the network if CUPS is sharing
|
|
printers remotely.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All CUPS users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-print/cups-1.2.12-r8"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
