DESCRIPTION:
Thomas Pollet has reported a vulnerability in CUPS, which potentially
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerability is caused due to two integer overflow errors in
filter/image-png.c when processing PNG files. These can be exploited
to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via overly large width and
height PNG fields.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.3.7. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Fixed in the SVN repository.

Restrict access to trusted users only.
