TITLE:
Red Hat update for cups

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35340

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35340/

DESCRIPTION:
Red Hat has issued an update for cups. This fixes some
vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious people to
potentially disclose sensitive information, cause a DoS (Denial of
Service), or potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

1) A use-after-free error exists within the scheduler directory
service. This can be exploited to e.g. crash cupsd by sending a CUPS
browse packet at a specific moment.

2) Various integer overflow errors exist within the "pdftops"
application. This can be exploited to e.g. cause a crash or
potentially execute arbitrary code by printing a specially crafted
PDF file.

3) An error in the processing of IPP tags below 16 can be exploited
to crash the server.

For more information:
SA34481

SOLUTION:
Updated packages are available via Red Hat Network.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
1) Swen van Brussel
2) Reported by the vendor.
