Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-print/cups < 1.1.23 >= 1.1.23 Resolution ========== All CUPS users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-print/cups-1.1.23" Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200412-25.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
