NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cups package and not the cups package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.
The _cupsGetlang function, as used by lppasswd.c in lppasswd in CUPS 1.2.2, 1.3.7, 1.3.9, and 1.4.1, relies on an environment variable to determine the file that provides localized message strings, which allows local users to gain privileges via a file that contains crafted localization data with format string specifiers.
