Synopsis:	Important: hplip security update
Issue date:	2007-10-11
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-5208

Kees Cook discovered a flaw in the way the hplip hpssd daemon handled user
input. A local attacker could send a specially crafted request to the hpssd
daemon, possibly allowing them to run arbitrary commands as the root user.
(CVE-2007-5208).
On Scientific Linux 5, the SELinux targeted policy for hpssd which is enabled 
by default, blocks the ability to exploit this issue to run arbitrary code.
