Details

A flaw was detected in the printer access control list checking in the
CUPS server. Printer names were compared in a case sensitive manner;
by modifying the capitalization of printer names, a remote attacker
could circumvent ACLs and print to printers he should not have access
to.

The Ubuntu 5.04 version of cupsys is not vulnerable against this.
