Detail
| Security vulnerabilities have been discovered and corrected in CUPS. CUPS 1.1.17 through 1.3.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PNG image with a large height value, which bypasses a validation check and triggers a buffer overflow (CVE-2008-5286). CUPS shipped with Mandriva Linux allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/pdf.log temporary file (CVE-2009-0032). The updated packages have been patched to prevent this. |
