The Common UNIX Printing System provides a portable printing layer for UNIX(R) operating systems.
A buffer overflow flaw was found in the Decrypt::makeFileKey2 function of Xpdf which also affects the CUPS pdftops filter due to a shared codebase. An attacker who has the ability to send a malicious PDF file to a printer could possibly execute arbitrary code as the lp user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0064 to this issue.

All users of cups should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues.
