Synopsis: Important: hplip security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2013:1274-1
Issue Date: 2013-09-19
CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-4325
--

HPLIP communicated with PolicyKit for authorization via a D-Bus API that
is vulnerable to a race condition. This could lead to intended PolicyKit
authorizations being bypassed. This update modifies HPLIP to communicate
with PolicyKit via a different API that is not vulnerable to the race
condition. (CVE-2013-4325)
