Please provide an updated ebuild. (In reply to comment #1) > Please provide an updated ebuild. > Isn't net-print/cups-1.4.4 already in portage? CVE-2010-0540 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-0540): Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the web interface in CUPS before 1.4.4, as used on Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8, Mac OS X 10.6 before 10.6.4, and other platforms, allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that change settings. CVE-2010-1748 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1748): The cgi_initialize_string function in cgi-bin/var.c in the web interface in CUPS before 1.4.4, as used on Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8, Mac OS X 10.6 before 10.6.4, and other platforms, does not properly handle parameter values containing a % (percent) character without two subsequent hex characters, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from cupsd process memory via a crafted request, as demonstated by the (1) /admin?OP=redirect&URL=% and (2) /admin?URL=/admin/&OP=% URIs. CVE-2010-2431 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2431): The cupsFileOpen function in CUPS before 1.4.4 allows local users, with lp group membership, to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the (1) /var/cache/cups/remote.cache or (2) /var/cache/cups/job.cache file. CVE-2010-2431 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2431): The cupsFileOpen function in CUPS before 1.4.4 allows local users, with lp group membership, to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the (1) /var/cache/cups/remote.cache or (2) /var/cache/cups/job.cache file. CVE-2010-2432 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2432): The cupsDoAuthentication function in auth.c in the client in CUPS before 1.4.4, when HAVE_GSSAPI is omitted, does not properly handle a demand for authorization, which allows remote CUPS servers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED responses. cups team, how do you want to proceed here? Is stabilizing 1.4.4 an option? If no, an updated 1.3.x ebuild would be necessary. *ping* (In reply to comment #4) > cups team, how do you want to proceed here? Is stabilizing 1.4.4 an option? If > no, an updated 1.3.x ebuild would be necessary. > cups-1.4.4 needs to get stabilized. I've had no time cleaning up the backlog of bugs, nor the time to check if something on the printing guide needs to be updated (libusb vs. usblp kernel module). Any help regarding this would be highly appreciated. The ebuild itself is in a good shape, most open bugs are plain driver issues and/or misconfigurations. The recently committed ghostscript-gpl-8.71-r5 should get stabilized along with it, it carries the change gs-std-fonts vs. urw-fonts over the last stable one (-r1) and -r5 also fixes a security issue (CVE-2010-1628). CVE-2010-0542 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-0542): The _WriteProlog function in texttops.c in texttops in the Text Filter subsystem in CUPS before 1.4.4 does not check the return values of certain calloc calls, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference or heap memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted file. Adding CVE-2010-2941, fixed in CUPS 1.4.5 (http://cups.org/articles.php?L597). http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2941 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. Changing whiteboard from B4 to B1 because of possible remote code execution. CVE-2010-2941 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2941): 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. Fixed in net-print/cups-1.4.6-r2 via bug 333781. Added to existing GLSA request. No vulnerable version in the tree anymore. This issue was resolved and addressed in GLSA 201207-10 at http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-201207-10.xml by GLSA coordinator Sean Amoss (ackle). |
