CVE-2007-0720

Published: 13 March 2007

The CUPS service on multiple platforms allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service hang) via a "partially-negotiated" SSL connection, which prevents other requests from being accepted.

The "fix" isn't really a fix, and just worsens the diagnostics available to an admin seeking the DoS.  This is a design problem with CUPS.
