APP: Apple CUPS gif_read_lzw Heap Buffer Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Common Unix Printing System (CUPS). A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the affected application.
Extended Description
CUPS is prone to a heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because of a failure to properly bounds-check user-supplied data. Successful exploits will allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application; failed exploit attempts may cause denial-of-service conditions. CUPS 1.4.8 is vulnerable. Other versions may also be affected.
