 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2013:069
 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : cups-pk-helper
 Date    : April 8, 2013
 Affected: Business Server 1.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 Updated cups-pk-helper package fixes security vulnerability:
 
 cups-pk-helper, a PolicyKit helper to configure CUPS with fine-grained
 privileges, wraps CUPS function calls in an insecure way. This could
 lead to uploading sensitive data to a CUPS resource, or overwriting
 specific files with the content of a CUPS resource. The user would
 have to explicitly approve the action (CVE-2012-4510).
