Red Hat Security Advisory

 

Synopsis: Moderate: cups security update

Advisory ID: RHSA-2009:0428-01

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-0428.html

Issue date: 2009-04-16

CVE Names: CVE-2009-0163

=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated cups packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red

Hat Enterprise Linux 3.

 

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red

Hat Security Response Team.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, 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. Description:

 

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

for UNIX operating systems.

 

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was

discovered in the Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) decoding routines used by

the CUPS image-converting filters, "imagetops" and "imagetoraster". An

attacker could create a malicious TIFF file that could, potentially,

execute arbitrary code as the "lp" user if the file was printed.

(CVE-2009-0163)

 

Red Hat would like to thank Aaron Sigel of the Apple Product Security team

for responsibly reporting this flaw.

 

Users of cups are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing the

update, the cupsd daemon will be restarted automatically.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released

errata relevant to your system have been applied.

 

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use

the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259
