The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer
for UNIX operating systems.

An invalid free flaw was found in the way the CUPS server parsed Internet
Printing Protocol (IPP) packets. A malicious user able to send IPP requests
to the CUPS server could use this flaw to crash the CUPS server.
(CVE-2010-2941)

Red Hat would like to thank Emmanuel Bouillon of NATO C3 Agency for
reporting this issue.

Users of cups are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing this
update, the cupsd daemon will be restarted automatically.
