CVE-2008-0047 [CRITICAL] CUPS vulnerabilities
Title: CUPS vulnerabilities
Summary: CUPS vulnerabilities
It was discovered that the CUPS administration interface contained a heap-
based overflow flaw. A local attacker, and a remote attacker if printer
sharing is enabled, could send a malicious request and possibly execute
arbitrary code as the non-root user in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, 6.10, and 7.04.
In Ubuntu 7.10, attackers would be isolated by the AppArmor CUPS profile.
(CVE-2008-0047)
It was discovered that the hpgl filter in CUPS did not properly validate
its input when parsing parameters. If a crafted HP-GL/2 file were printed,
an attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code as the non-root user
in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, 6.10, and 7.04. In Ubuntu 7.10, attackers would be
isolated by the AppArmor CUPS profile. (CVE-2008-0053)

CVE-2008-0053 [CRITICAL] cups: buffer overflows in HP-GL/2 filter
cups: buffer overflows in HP-GL/2 filter
Multiple buffer overflows in the HP-GL/2-to-PostScript filter in CUPS before 1.3.6 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HP-GL/2 file.
Statement: NVD clarification:
To exploit this flaw an attacker needs to print a malicious file through the vulnerable filter (either themselves or by convincing a victim to do so), it should therefore be AC:M
In CUPS, print filters run as an unprivileged user no superuser (root), therefore this should be scored C:P, I:P, A:P
