    Debian Security Advisory DSA 275-1 security@debian.org

    Package : lpr-ppd
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem-Type : local
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id : CAN-2003-0144

    A buffer overflow has been discovered in lpr, a BSD lpr/lpd line
    printer spooling system. This problem can be exploited by a local
    user to gain root privileges, even if the printer system is set up
    properly.

    For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.72-2.1.

    The old stable distribution (potato) does not contain lpr-ppd packages.

    For the stable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.72-3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your lpr-ppd package immediately.

    Upgrade Instructions
