==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Summary:

cups-filters could be made to run programs if it received specially crafted
network traffic.

Software Description:
- cups-filters: OpenPrinting CUPS Filters

Details:

Simone Margaritelli discovered that the cups-filters cups-browsed component
could be used to create arbitrary printers from outside the local network.
In combination with issues in other printing components, a remote attacker

PPD files, and execute arbitrary code when a printer is used. This update
disables support for the legacy CUPS printer discovery protocol.
