Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions CUPS versions prior to 2.0

Description The issue allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on various index files, including index.html, index.class, index.pl, index.php, index.pyc, or index.py. Additionally, multiple vulnerabilities in the CUPS package of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system can lead to a breach of protected information, and exploitation can be carried out remotely.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.0, update to version 2.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the index files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
