filters, and other softwarethat was once part of the core CUPS distribution but is
now maintained independently.
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)
All cups-filters users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which contain backported patches to correct these issues. After installing
this update, the cups-browsed daemon will be restarted automatically.");
