Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : cups (MDKSA-2001:048)

high Nessus Plugin ID 13867

Synopsis

The remote Mandrake Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of cups shipped with Linux-Mandrake 8.0 has a problem where when a user prints a multi-page PostScript file with embedded pictures, the pages following the first with the picture are all printed on the same page, one on top of the other. From multi-page Abiword files (only text) only the last page is printed. This update resolves this bug. As well, the upstream 1.1.7 release of cups fixes some security issues.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
