    Package        : cups
    CVE ID         : CVE-2025-58060 CVE-2025-58364

    Two vulnerabilities were discovered in cups, the Common UNIX Printing
    System, which may result in authentication bypass with AuthType
    Negotiate or in denial of service (daemon crash).

    For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed
    in version 2.4.2-3+deb12u9.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 2.4.10-3+deb13u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your cups packages.

    For the detailed security status of cups please refer to its security
    tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/cups

    Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
