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.

Multiple integer overflows in (1) filter/image-png.c and (2) filter/image-zoom.c in CUPS 1.3 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and trigger memory corruption, as demonstrated via a crafted PNG image.
