Description Klaus Singvogel 2005-07-14 21:19:11 UTC
I just noticed CAN-2004-2154, as it got fixed by RedHat today.  
I think, I never build any patches for this issue: 
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2004-2154 
 
Please note, that this affects cups versions before 1.1.19rc1 only. 
This is the case for: SLES8, 8.2, 9.0 
 
So, I wonder, if we should really work on this issue, or include it later (= my favorite). 
 
For SLES8 we started to make CUPS the default printing system, but LPRng was often 
installed at customer instead. 
 
Security-Team: need decision, if I should work on this.

I guess you'd use those ACLs to restrict printing to trusted users/hosts. So 
since you can DoS the print system easily I'd vote for fixing it if it's 
simple to fix.

security-team please handle rest of process. TIA
