Title:	RedHat Update for foomatic RHSA-2011:1110-01
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'foomatic'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'foomatic' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Foomatic is a comprehensive, spooler-independent database of printers, printer drivers, and driver descriptions. The package also includes spooler-independent command line interfaces to manipulate queues and to print files and manipulate print jobs. foomatic-rip is a print filter written in C. An input sanitization flaw was found in the foomatic-rip print filter. An attacker could submit a print job with the username, title, or job options set to appear as a command line option that caused the filter to use a specified PostScript printer description (PPD) file, rather than the administrator-set one. This could lead to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the 'lp' user. (CVE-2011-2964) All foomatic users should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to resolve this issue. Affected Software/OS: foomatic on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
