Synopsis: Moderate: cups-filters security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2014:1795-1
Issue Date: 2014-11-03
CVE Numbers: CVE-2014-4338
 CVE-2014-4337
--

An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way the process_browse_data()
function of cups-browsed handled certain browse packets. A remote attacker
could send a specially crafted browse packet that, when processed by cups-
browsed, would crash the cups-browsed daemon. (CVE-2014-4337)

A flaw was found in the way the cups-browsed daemon interpreted the
"BrowseAllow" directive in the cups-browsed.conf file. An attacker able to
add a malformed "BrowseAllow" directive to the cups-browsed.conf file
could use this flaw to bypass intended access restrictions.
(CVE-2014-4338)

After installing this update, the cups-browsed daemon will be restarted
automatically.
