-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACKAGE : cups SUMMARY : Fix for CUPS denial of service vulnerability DATE : 2004-10-14 11:12:00 ID : CLA-2004:872 RELEVANT RELEASES : 9, 10 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION CUPS[1] (Common UNIX Printing System) is an open-source, freely available and cross-platform printing solution for UNIX environments. Alvaro Martinez Echevarria found a vulnerability[2] in the CUPS Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) implementation that allows remote attackers to make CUPS stop listening on the IPP port by sending an empty UDP datagram packet to the IPP port, causing a denial of service situation. SOLUTION It is recommended that all CUPS users upgrade to the latest packages. This update will automatically restart the service if it is already running.
