Gentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 200812-11 - Several remotely exploitable bugs have been found in CUPS, which allow remote execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 1.3.9-r1 are affected.

18cf0efe37c11d10c466bfd237ca496e1ed01d005b3192127e35bf7586a4e622Ubuntu Security Notice 656-1 - It was discovered that the SGI image filter in CUPS did not perform proper bounds checking. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted SGI image, an attacker could cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the texttops filter in CUPS did not properly validate page metrics. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted text file, an attacker could cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the HP-GL filter in CUPS did not properly check for invalid pen parameters. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted HP-GL or HP-GL/2 file, a remote attacker could cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code with user privileges. In Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 LTS, attackers would be isolated by the AppArmor CUPS profile.
668f3c901949dc95dce09d295dcfff47bdbafbe545ac01a186265d7888fef7d2Mandriva Linux Security Advisory - A buffer overflow in the SGI image format decoding routines used by the CUPS image converting filter imagetops was discovered. An attacker could create malicious SGI image files that could possibly execute arbitrary code if the file was printed. An integer overflow flaw leading to a heap buffer overflow was found in the Text-to-PostScript texttops filter. An attacker could create a malicious text file that could possibly execute arbitrary code if the file was printed. Finally, an insufficient buffer bounds checking flaw was found in the HP-GL/2-to-PostScript hpgltops filter. An attacker could create a malicious HP-GL/2 file that could possibly execute arbitrary code if the file was printed. The updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue; for Mandriva Linux 2009.0 the latest CUPS version (1.3.9) is provided that corrects these issues and also provides other bug fixes.
7608e3bc5aaab4d41002691856a523d026b6aac29e25deeb3a6f44548eaf4c26A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple CUPS. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists in the Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language filter. Inadequate bounds checking on the pen width and pen color opcodes result in an arbitrary memory overwrite allowing for the execution of arbitrary code as the "hgltops" process uid.
