[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#434734: cupsys: CUPS allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service

[Steffen Joeris]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.12-1
Severity: important
Tags: security

Hi mates

The following CVE[0] exists for cupsys:

The CUPS service on multiple platforms allows remote attackers to cause
a denial of service (service hang) via a "partially-negotiated" SSL
connection, which prevents other requests from being accepted.

Could you please check, if the debian versions are affected?

Cheers
Steffen
