  An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was
  discovered in the Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) decoding routines used by
  the CUPS image-converting filters, 'imagetops' and 'imagetoraster'. An
  attacker could create a malicious TIFF file that could, potentially,
  execute arbitrary code as the 'lp' user if the file was printed.
  (CVE-2009-0163)

  Red Hat would like to thank Aaron Sigel of the Apple Product Security team
  for responsibly reporting this flaw.
