                    Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Package name:           LPRng
    Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2003:060
    Date:                   May 21st, 2003
    
    Affected versions:	8.2, 9.0, Corporate Server 2.1
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Problem Description:
    
     Karol Lewandowski discovered a problem with psbanner, a printer filter
     that creates a PostScript format banner.  psbanner creates a temporary
     file for debugging purposes when it is configured as a filter, and does
     not check whether or not this file already exists or is a symlink.  The
     filter will overwrite this file, or the file it is pointing to (if it
     is a symlink) with its current environment and called arguments with the
     user id that LPRng is running as.
