Debian Security Advisory

DSA-950-1 cupsys -- buffer overflows

Date Reported:

23 Jan 2006

Affected Packages:

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2005-3191, CVE-2005-3192, CVE-2005-3193, CVE-2005-3624, CVE-2005-3625, CVE-2005-3626, CVE-2005-3627, CVE-2005-3628.

More information:

"infamous41md" and Chris Evans discovered several heap based buffer overflows in xpdf which are also present in CUPS, the Common UNIX Printing System, and which can lead to a denial of service by crashing the application or possibly to the execution of arbitrary code.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 1.1.14-5woody14.

CUPS doesn't use the xpdf source anymore since 1.1.22-7, when it switched to using xpdf-utils for PDF processing.

We recommend that you upgrade your CUPS packages.

Fixed in:

Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (woody)
