Synopsis:	Moderate: cups security update
Issue date:	2008-04-01
CVE Names:	CVE-2008-0047 CVE-2008-0053 CVE-2008-1373 CVE-2008-1374

SL5 Only:
A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in a CUPS administration interface
CGI script. A local attacker able to connect to the IPP port (TCP port 631)
could send a malicious request causing the script to crash or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code as the "lp" user. Please note: the default CUPS
configuration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 does not allow remote
connections to the IPP TCP port. (CVE-2008-0047)

Two overflows were discovered in the HP-GL/2-to-PostScript filter. An
attacker could create a malicious HP-GL/2 file that could possibly execute
arbitrary code as the "lp" user if the file is printed. (CVE-2008-0053)

A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the GIF decoding routines used by
CUPS image converting filters "imagetops" and "imagetoraster". An attacker
could create a malicious GIF file that could possibly execute arbitrary
code as the "lp" user if the file was printed. (CVE-2008-1373)

SL 3 & 4 Only:
It was discovered that the patch used to address CVE-2004-0888 in CUPS
packages in Scientific Linux 3 and 4 did not completely resolve the
integer overflow in the "pdftops" filter on 64-bit platforms.  An attacker
could create a malicious PDF file that could possibly execute arbitrary
code as the "lp" user if the file was printed. (CVE-2008-1374)
