+ <title>HPLIP: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in HPLIP, the worst of
+ which may allow execution of arbitrary code.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="net-print/hplip" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">3.11.10</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">3.11.10</vulnerable>
+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>The Hewlett-Packard Linux Imaging and Printing system (HPLIP) provides
+ drivers for HP's inkjet and laser printers, scanners and fax machines.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Two vulnerabilities have been found in HPLIP:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The "hpmud_get_pml()" function in pml.c contains a boundary error
+ which could cause a stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-2010-4267).
+ </li>
+ <li>The "send_data_to_stdout()" function in hpcupsfax.cpp creates
+ insecure temporary files (CVE-2011-2722).
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>A remote attacker might send specially crafted SNMP reponses, possibly
+ resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service
+ condition. Furthermore, a local attacker could perform symlink attacks to
+ overwrite arbitrary files.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All HPLIP users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-print/hplip-3.11.10"
+ </code>
