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.
