Summary
The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory GLSA 200409-24.
Solution
All foomatic users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge sync # emerge -pv '>=net-print/foomatic-3.0.2' # emerge '>=net-print/foomatic-3.0.2' PLEASE NOTE: You should update foomatic, instead of foomatic-filters. This will help to ensure that all other foomatic components remain functional. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=GLSA%20200409-24 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64166 http://www.linuxprinting.org/pipermail/foomatic-devel/2004q3/001996.html http://www.mandrakesoft.com/security/advisories?name=MDKSA-2004:094
