Slackware Security[slackware-security] cups-filters/cups-browsed (SSA:2024-275-01)
New cups-filters (Slackware 15.0) and cups-browsed (Slackware -current)
packages are available to fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/cups-filters-1.28.17-i586-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
Mitigate security issue that could lead to a denial of service or
the execution of arbitrary code.
Rebuilt with --with-browseremoteprotocols=none to disable incoming
connections, since this daemon has been shown to be insecure. If you
actually use cups-browsed, be sure to install the new
/etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf.new containing this line:
BrowseRemoteProtocols none
