    Package        : lpr-ppd
    Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
    Problem-Type   : local
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id         : CAN-2003-0144
    
    A buffer overflow has been discovered in lpr, a BSD lpr/lpd line
    printer spooling system.  This problem can be exploited by a local
    user to gain root privileges, even if the printer system is set up
    properly.
    
    For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.72-2.1.
    
    The old stable distribution (potato) does not contain lpr-ppd packages.
    
    For the stable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.72-3.
    
    We recommend that you upgrade your lpr-ppd package immediately.
