NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lpr package and not the lpr package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in the lprm command in the lprold lpr package on SuSE 7.1 through 7.3, OpenBSD 3.2 and earlier, and possibly other operating systems, allows local users to gain root privileges via long command line arguments such as (1) request ID or (2) user name.
