Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions cups-filters versions prior to 1.0.53

Description The issue concerns multiple vulnerabilities in the cups-filters package that can lead to breaches in confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely. A specific vulnerability is a heap-based buffer overflow in the pdftoopvp filter, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.0.53, update to version 1.0.53 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the pdftoopvp filter until a patch is available.
