Detail
| Updated cups-pk-helper package fixes security vulnerability: cups-pk-helper, a PolicyKit helper to configure CUPS with fine-grained privileges, wraps CUPS function calls in an insecure way. This could lead to uploading sensitive data to a CUPS resource, or overwriting specific files with the content of a CUPS resource. The user would have to explicitly approve the action (CVE-2012-4510). |
