Insight
Insight
The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for UNIX operating systems. The CUPS " pdftops" filter converts Portable Document Format (PDF) files to PostScript. Multiple flaws were discovered in the CUPS " pdftops" filter. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that, when printed, would cause " pdftops" to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the " lp" user. (CVE-2010-3702, CVE-2009-3609) 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.
