A remote attacker could, in aspecially-crafted way, query for the list of current print jobs for aspecific printer, leading to a denial of service (cupsd crash).(CVE-2009-3553)Several cross-site scripting (XSS) flaws were found in the way the CUPS web server interface processed HTML form content. If a remote attacker could trick a local user who is logged into the CUPS web interface into visiting a specially-crafted HTML page, the attacker could retrieve and potentially modify confidential CUPS administration data. (CVE-2009-2820)After installing the update, the cupsd daemon will be restarted automatically.NOTE: SL 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2 users. Be sure to update rpm before doing this update. You should just need to do a "yum update rpm\*"These cups pacakges use API's found in the newer version of rpm, that came with SL 5.3 and above. If you do not update rpm, then this cups update might stall and possibly never finish.SL 5.x SRPMS:cups-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.src.rpm i386:cups-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.i386.rpmcups-devel-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.i386.rpmcups-libs-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.i386.rpmcups-lpd-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.i386.rpm x86_64:cups-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.x86_64.rpmcups-devel-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.i386.rpmcups-devel-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.x86_64.rpmcups-libs-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.i386.rpmcups-libs-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.x86_64.rpmcups-lpd-1.3.7-11.el5_4.4.x86_64.rpm-Connie Sieh-Troy Dawson
