Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/cups-1.4.4-i486-1_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded.
 Fixed a memory allocation error in texttops.
 Fixed a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) that could allow a remote
 attacker to reconfigure or disable CUPS if a CUPS admin logged into the
 web interface visited a specially-crafted website.
 Fixed a bug where uninitialized memory from the cupsd process could
 reveal sensitive information.

 (* Security fix *)
