From: security at caldera.com (security@...dera.com) Subject: Security Update: [CSSA-2003-004.0] Linux: Multiple Security Vulnerabilities in the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) To: bugtraq@...urityfocus.com announce@...ts.caldera.com security-alerts@...uxsecurity.com full-disclosure@...ts.netsys.com ______________________________________________________________________________ SCO Security Advisory Subject: Linux: Multiple Security Vulnerabilities in the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) Advisory number: CSSA-2003-004.0 Issue date: 2003 January 20 Cross reference: ______________________________________________________________________________ 1. Problem Description Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the CUPS printing system (these descriptions are from the associated CVE database entries): - Allows local users with lp privileges to create or overwrite arbitrary files via file race conditions. - Allows remote attackers to add printers without authentication via a certain UDP packet, that can then be used to perform unauthorized activities such as stealing the local root certificate for the administration server via a "need authorization" page. - Allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by causing negative arguments to be fed into memcpy() calls via HTTP requests with (1) a negative Content-Length value or (2) a negative length in a chunked transfer encoding. - The obs.c module does not properly use the strncat function call when processing the options string, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack. - The filters/image-gif.c module does not properly check for zero-length GIF images, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via modified chunk headers. - Does not properly check the return values of various file and socket operations, which could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) by causing file descriptors to be assigned and not released. - Multiple integer overflows allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) the CUPSd HTTP interface, and (2) the image handling code in CUPS filters. 2. Vulnerable Supported Versions System Package ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server prior to cups-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-client-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-devel-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-ppd-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation prior to cups-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-client-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-devel-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-ppd-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1 Server prior to cups-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-client-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-devel-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-ppd-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1 Workstation prior to cups-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-client-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-devel-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm prior to cups-ppd-1.1.10-6.i386.rpm 3. Solution The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand. 4.
