Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.52812
Category:Fedora Local Security Checks
Title:Fedora Legacy Security Advisory FLSA-2004:2072
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory FLSA-2004:2072.

Alvaro Martinez Echevarria reported a bug in the CUPS Internet Printing
Protocol (IPP) implementation in versions of CUPS prior to 1.1.21. An
attacker could send a carefully crafted UDP packet to the IPP port which
could cause CUPS to stop listening to the port and result in a denial of
service. In order to exploit this bug, an attacker would need to have
the ability to send a UDP packet to the IPP port (by default 631). The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2004-0558 to this issue.

All users of cups should upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch as well as a fix for a non-exploitable
off-by-one bug.

Affected platforms:
Redhat 9
Fedora Core 1
