Check for the version of the cups package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2004:097 (cups). Alvaro Martinez Echevarria discovered a vulnerability in the CUPS print server where an empty UDP datagram sent to port 631 (the default port that cupsd listens to) would disable browsing. This would prevent cupsd from seeing any remote printers or any future remote printer changes. The updated packages are patched to protect against this vulnerability.
