Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.880956 |
Category: | CentOS Local Security Checks |
Title: | CentOS Update for foomatic CESA-2011:1109 centos4 i386 |
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 Perl. 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-2011-2697) All foomatic users should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to resolve this issue. Affected Software/OS: foomatic on CentOS 4 Solution: Please install the updated packages. CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
