+ <title>CUPS: Denial of service</title>

+ CUPS incorrectly handles partially-negotiated SSL connections allowing for
+ a Denial of Service.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ CUPS provides a portable printing layer for UNIX-based operating
+ systems.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ CUPS does not properly handle partially-negotiated SSL connections.
+ Upon receiving a partially-negotiated SSL connection, CUPS no longer
+ accepts further incoming connections, as the initial connection never
+ times out.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could partially negotiate an SSL connection with a CUPS
+ server, and cause future connections to that server to fail, resulting
+ in a Denial of Service.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All CUPS users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-print/cups-1.2.9"</code>
