Out-of-bounds read In cups-filters
Description
A flaw was found in cups-filters. This vulnerability allows a heap buffer overflow and memory corruption, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or a Denial of Service, via an unvalidated length parameter in the CompressData function of the rastertopclx filter. This can be exploited by an attacker with permissions to install a printer with a PPD (PostScript Printer Description) file or remotely via the CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) web interface.
