Updated cups packages that fix three security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for UNIX operating systems. The CUPS 'texttops' filter converts text files to PostScript.

A missing memory allocation failure check flaw, leading to a NULL pointer dereference, was found in the CUPS 'texttops' filter. An attacker could create a malicious text file that would cause 'texttops' to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the 'lp' user if the file was printed. (CVE-2010-0542)

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) issue was found in the CUPS web interface. If a remote attacker could trick a user, who is logged into the CUPS web interface as an administrator, into visiting a specially crafted website, the attacker could reconfigure and disable CUPS, and gain access to print jobs and system files. (CVE-2010-0540)

Note: As a result of the fix for CVE-2010-0540, cookies must now be enabled in your web browser to use the CUPS web interface.

An uninitialized memory read issue was found in the CUPS web interface. If an attacker had access to the CUPS web interface, they could use a specially crafted URL to leverage this flaw to read a limited amount of memory from the cupsd process, possibly obtaining sensitive information. (CVE-2010-1748)

Red Hat would like to thank the Apple Product Security team for responsibly reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges regenrecht as the original reporter of CVE-2010-0542; Adrian 'pagvac' Pastor of GNUCITIZEN and Tim Starling as the original reporters of CVE-2010-0540; and Luca Carettoni as the original reporter of CVE-2010-1748.

Users of cups are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. After installing this update, the cupsd daemon will be restarted automatically.

New cups packages are available for Slackware 13.1 and -current to fix security issues.

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has cups packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - ipp.c in cupsd in CUPS 1.4.4 and earlier does not properly allocate memory for attribute values with     invalid string data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and     application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted IPP request. (CVE-2010-2941)

  - The Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language (HPGL) filter in CUPS before 1.3.9 allows remote attackers to     execute arbitrary code via crafted pen width and pen color opcodes that overwrite arbitrary memory.
    (CVE-2008-3641)

  - Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others,     allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via streams that end prematurely, as     demonstrated using the (1) CCITTFaxDecode and (2) DCTDecode streams, aka Infinite CPU spins.
    (CVE-2005-3625)

  - Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others,     allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted FlateDecode stream that triggers a     null dereference. (CVE-2005-3626)

  - Stream.cc in Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor,     and others, allows attackers to modify memory and possibly execute arbitrary code via a DCTDecode stream     with (1) a large number of components value that is not checked by DCTStream::readBaselineSOF or     DCTStream::readProgressiveSOF, (2) a large Huffman table index value that is not checked by     DCTStream::readHuffmanTables, and (3) certain uses of the scanInfo.numComps value by     DCTStream::readScanInfo. (CVE-2005-3627)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2010-368:03 advisory.

    The Common UNIX Printing System provides a portable printing layer for     UNIX operating systems. It has been developed by Easy Software Products     to promote a standard printing solution for all UNIX vendors and users.
    CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command-line interfaces.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2010-0540     Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the web interface in CUPS in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8, and     10.6 before 10.6.4, allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests     that change settings.
    CVE-2010-0542     No description available at the time of writing, please use the CVE link below.
    CVE-2010-1748     The web interface in CUPS in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8, and 10.6 before 10.6.4, reads uninitialized memory     during handling of form variables, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive     information from cupsd process memory via unspecified vectors.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
