Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for cups some time ago.
CVE-2009-0164[0]:
| The web interface for CUPS before 1.3.10 does not validate
| the HTTP Host header in a client request, which makes it
| easier for remote attackers to conduct DNS rebinding
| attacks.
Unfortunately the vulnerability described above is not important enough
to get it fixed via regular security update in Debian stable. It does
not warrant a DSA.
However it would be nice if this could get fixed via a regular point update[1].
Please contact the release team for this.
This is an automatically generated mail, in case you are already working on an
upgrade this is of course pointless.

Kind regards
Nico
