Alpine: cups: security update to 2.2.2-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 403931

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - A localhost.localdomain whitelist entry in valid_host() in scheduler/client.c in CUPS before 2.2.2 allows
 remote attackers to execute arbitrary IPP commands by sending POST requests to the CUPS daemon in
 conjunction with DNS rebinding. The localhost.localdomain name is often resolved via a DNS server (neither
 the OS nor the web browser is responsible for ensuring that localhost.localdomain is 127.0.0.1).
