New hplip packages are available for Slackware 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, and
-current to fix security issues.

Updated hplip packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.

The hplip packages contain the Hewlett-Packard Linux Imaging and Printing Project (HPLIP), which provides drivers for Hewlett-Packard printers and multi-function peripherals.

HPLIP communicated with PolicyKit for authorization via a D-Bus API that is vulnerable to a race condition. This could lead to intended PolicyKit authorizations being bypassed. This update modifies HPLIP to communicate with PolicyKit via a different API that is not vulnerable to the race condition. (CVE-2013-4325)

All users of hplip are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.

This update brings in the latest upstream release and fixes a security issue with the way polkit is used for authentication.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

HPLIP communicated with PolicyKit for authorization via a D-Bus API that is vulnerable to a race condition. This could lead to intended PolicyKit authorizations being bypassed. This update modifies HPLIP to communicate with PolicyKit via a different API that is not vulnerable to the race condition. (CVE-2013-4325)

the following security issue was fixed for HPLIP 3.13.10: usage of an insecure polkit DBUS API (fix for bnc#836937 and CVE-2013-4325 that are related to CVE-2013-4288 and bnc#835827).

Updated polkit packages fix security vulnerability :

A race condition was found in the way the PolicyKit pkcheck utility checked process authorization when the process was specified by its process ID via the --process option. A local user could use this flaw to bypass intended PolicyKit authorizations and escalate their privileges (CVE-2013-4288).

Note: Applications that invoke pkcheck with the --process option need to be modified to use the pid,pid-start-time,uid argument for that option, to allow pkcheck to check process authorization correctly.

Because of the change in the PolicyKit API, hplip (CVE-2013-4325), rtkit (CVE-2013-4326), and systemd (CVE-2013-4327) packages have been updated to use a different API that is not affected by this PolicyKit vulnerability.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2013:1274 advisory.

  - hplip: Insecure calling of polkit (CVE-2013-4325)

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

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in the HP Linux Printing and Imaging System: Insecure temporary files, insufficient permission checks in PackageKit and the insecure hp-upgrade service has been disabled.
