Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.54349
Category:Red Hat Local Security Checks
Title:RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2005:571
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory RHSA-2005:571.

The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for
UNIX(R) operating systems.

When processing a request, the CUPS scheduler would use case-sensitive
matching on the queue name to decide which authorization policy should be
used. However, queue names are not case-sensitive. An unauthorized user
could print to a password-protected queue without needing a password. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name
CVE-2005-2154 to this issue.

Please note that the version of CUPS included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
is not vulnerable to this issue.

All users of CUPS should upgrade to these erratum packages which contain a
backported patch to correct this issue.

Solution:
Please note that this update is available via
Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red
Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date
