A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the CUPS web interface. An
attacker could use this flaw to perform a cross-site scripting attack
against users of the CUPS web interface. (CVE-2014-2856)

It was discovered that CUPS allowed certain users to create symbolic links
in certain directories under /var/cache/cups/. A local user with the 'lp'
group privileges could use this flaw to read the contents of arbitrary
files on the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the
system. (CVE-2014-3537, CVE-2014-5029, CVE-2014-5030, CVE-2014-5031)

After installing this update, the cupsd daemon will be restarted
automatically.
