NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cups-filters-libs package and not the cups-filters-libs package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the WriteProlog function in filter/texttopdf.c in texttopdf in cups-filters before 1.0.70 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a small line size in a print job.
