    descriptionUpdated CUPS packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for UNIX(R) operating systems. A bug was found in the way CUPS handled SSL negotiation. A remote user capable of connecting to the CUPS daemon could cause a denial of service to other CUPS users. (CVE-2007-0720) All users of CUPS should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch introducing a timeout, which prevents connections being kept open for an arbitrarily long time.

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200703-28 (CUPS: Denial of Service) CUPS does not properly handle partially-negotiated SSL connections. Upon receiving a partially-negotiated SSL connection, CUPS no longer accepts further incoming connections, as the initial connection never times out. Impact : An attacker could partially negotiate an SSL connection with a CUPS server, and cause future connections to that server to fail, resulting in a Denial of Service. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time.

    NASL idCENTOS_RHSA-2007-0123.NASL
    descriptionUpdated CUPS packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for UNIX(R) operating systems. A bug was found in the way CUPS handled SSL negotiation. A remote user capable of connecting to the CUPS daemon could cause a denial of service to other CUPS users. (CVE-2007-0720) All users of CUPS should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch introducing a timeout, which prevents connections being kept open for an arbitrarily long time.
