Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. 2) A format string error in the in the LST Network Print Server service when handling e.g. the "USEP" command can be exploited via command arguments containing format string specifiers. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 9.4.2 build 105. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict network access to the service.
