Insight
A missing length check in the IPP implementation of cups could lead to a buffer overflow. Attackers could exploit that to crash cupsd or to potentially even execute arbitrary code with root privileges CVE-2007-4351.
On SUSE Linux 10.1 and 10.0 as well as on all SLES based products only crashing cupsd is possible.
A cummulative update that integrates other fixes for SLES will be released later.
Affected
cups on SUSE LINUX 10.1, openSUSE 10.2, openSUSE 10.3
