  - CVE-2015-1158 and CVE-2015-1159 fixes a possible privilege escalation

  cupsd.conf on server (CUPS STR#4609 CERT-VU-810572 CVE-2015-1158
  CVE-2015-1159 bugzilla.suse.com bsc#924208). In general it is crucial to
  limit access to CUPS to trustworthy users who do not misuse their
  permission to submit print jobs which means to upload arbitrary data
  onto the CUPS server, see the references and cf. the
  entries about CVE-2012-5519.");
