'A critical unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability
has been discovered, impacting all GNU/Linux systems.'
It���s a bug in cups-browsed. Details have appeared all over the place, I
found a copy here
<https://gist.github.com/stong/c8847ef27910ae344a7b5408d9840ee1>.
Summary: cups-browsed is listening on UDP port 631 for notifications of
new printers appearing on the network; it blindly trusts the information
it receives, leading to the code execution vulnerability.
