Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to cups
announced via advisory MDVSA-2008:170.

to the print server (CVE-2008-1722).

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2007.1, 2008.0, 2008.1, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0,
Multi Network Firewall 2.0

of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
