3. Description:

 

The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer

for UNIX® operating systems.

 

A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the SGI image format decoding

routines used by the CUPS image converting filter "imagetops". An attacker

could create a malicious SGI image file that could, possibly, execute

arbitrary code as the "lp" user if the file was printed. (CVE-2008-3639)

 

An integer overflow flaw leading to a heap buffer overflow was discovered

in the Text-to-PostScript "texttops" filter. An attacker could create a

malicious text file that could, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the

"lp" user if the file was printed. (CVE-2008-3640)

 

An insufficient buffer bounds checking flaw was discovered in the

HP-GL/2-to-PostScript "hpgltops" filter. An attacker could create a

malicious HP-GL/2 file that could, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the

"lp" user if the file was printed. (CVE-2008-3641)

 

Red Hat would like to thank regenrecht for reporting these issues.

 

All CUPS users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain backported patches to resolve these issues.
