Package : foomatic-filters
Vulnerability : shell command injection
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2011-2697 CVE-2011-2964
Debian Bug : 635549

It was discovered that the foomatic-filters, a support package for
setting up printers, allowed authenticated users to submit crafted
print jobs which would execute shell commands on the print servers.

CVE-2011-2697 was assigned to the vulnerability in the Perl
implementation included in lenny, and CVE-2011-2964 to the
vulnerability affecting the C reimplementation part of squeeze.

For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.0.2-20080211-3.2+lenny1.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 4.0.5-6+squeeze1.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem has been fixed in version 4.0.9-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your foomatic-filters packages.
