| Description: | Description:
The remote host is missing an update to cups
announced via advisory FEDORA-2009-3769.
This update fixes several security issues: CVE-2009-0163, CVE-2009-0164,
CVE-2009-0146, CVE-2009-0147, and CVE-2009-0166.
PDF files are now converted to PostScript using the poppler package's
pdftops program. NOTE: If your CUPS server is accessed using a
hostname or hostnames not known to the server itself you must add
ServerAlias hostname to cupsd.conf for each such name. The special
line ServerAlias * disables checking (but this allows DNS rebinding attacks).
ChangeLog:
* Tue Apr 21 2009 Tim Waugh 1:1.3.10-1
- 1.3.10. No longer need ext, includeifexists, str2988,
CVE-2008-5183, CVE-2008-5286, str3077, str3078, str3059, str3055 patches.
- Requires poppler-utils.
- NOTE: If your CUPS server is accessed using a hostname or hostnames
not known to the server itself you must add ServerAlias hostname
for each such name. The special line ServerAlias * disables checking
(but this allows DNS rebinding attacks).
