Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Updated CUPS packages fix security issues
Advisory ID: RHSA-2004:543-01
Issue date: 2004-10-22
Updated on: 2004-10-22
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Obsoletes: RHSA-2004:449
CVE Names: CAN-2004-0888 CAN-2004-0923
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Summary:
Updated cups packages that fix denial of service issues, a security information leak, as well as other various bugs are now available.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64
3. Problem description:
The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) is a print spooler.
During a source code audit, Chris Evans discovered a number of integer overflow bugs that affect xpdf. CUPS contains a copy of the xpdf code used for parsing PDF files and is therefore affected by these bugs. An attacker who has the ability to send a malicious PDF file to a printer could cause CUPS to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0888 to this issue.
When set up to print to a shared printer via Samba, CUPS would authenticate with that shared printer using a username and password. By default, the username and password used to connect to the Samba share is written into the error log file. A local user who is able to read the error log file could collect these usernames and passwords. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0923 to this issue.
These updated packages also include a fix that prevents some CUPS configuration files from being accidentally replaced.
All users of CUPS should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat Update Agent, use the following command:
