- Rudolf Polzer discovered a vulnerability in a2ps, a converter and
- pretty-printer for many formats to PostScript. The program did not
- escape shell meta characters properly which could lead to the
- execution of arbitrary commands as a privileged user if a2ps is
- installed as a printer filter.
- For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
- version 4.13b-16woody1.
- For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
- version 1:4.13b-4.2.
- We recommend that you upgrade your a2ps package.
