medium Nessus Plugin ID 45099

Language:

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

lppasswd when running setuid or setgid still honors environment variables that specify the location of message files. Local attackers could exploit that to gather information by using crafted format strings (CVE-2010-0393).

The previous fix for a use-after-free vulnerability (CVE-2009-3553) was incomplete (CVE-2010-0302).

Solution

Update the affected cups packages.
