Linux-Mandrake Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________
Package name: cups
Date: February 22nd, 2001
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2001:023
Affected versions: 7.2
________________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A number of problems were found by the SuSE security team recently
during an internal audit of the CUPS printing package. These problems
have been resolved with the latest CUPS release which include temp
file creation vulnerabilities, potential buffer overflows, and other
security enhancements. It is highly recommended that all
Linux-Mandrake users upgrade to this new version of CUPS. Due to prior
packaging problems, users are advised to completely remove the
following CUPS packages if they are currently installed on your system:
cups-common
libcups1
libcups1-devel
You can do this by using "rpm -e [package] --nodeps" for each package.
Once that is complete, you can upgrade CUPS using MandrakeUpdate.
________________________________________________________________________
Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package. You can do this with the command:
rpm --checksig package.rpm
You can get the GPG public key of the Linux-Mandrake Security Team at
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS
If you use MandrakeUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG
signature is performed automatically for you.
Linux-Mandrake 7.2:
706b2bd00f2d7087e67d9049a256686c 7.2/RPMS/cups-1.1.6-10.1mdk.i586.rpm
b61f19494cb94a322e603ba5f6c5d840 7.2/RPMS/cups-devel-1.1.6-10.1mdk.i586.rpm
f29fc2472c406eca76eebf64fde0f3d4 7.2/SRPMS/cups-1.1.6-10.1mdk.src.rpm
________________________________________________________________________
To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.
If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".
You can download the updates directly from one of the mirror sites
listed at:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3.
Updated packages are available in the "updates/[ver]/RPMS/" directory.
For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for
Linux-Mandrake 7.2, look for it in "updates/7.2/RPMS/". Updated source
RPMs are available as well, but you generally do not need to download
them.
Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.
