DESCRIPTION
 Foomatic[1] is a compreensive, spooler-independent database of
 printers, printer drivers and driver descriptions.
 
 The foomatic-rip filter in foomatic-filters contains a
 vulnerability[2][3] caused by insufficient checking of command-line
 parameters and environment variables which may allow arbitrary remote
 command execution on the print server with the permissions of the
 spooler user ("lp").


SOLUTION
 It is recommended that all foomatic users upgrade their packages.
