CVE-2011-2697

foomatic-rip-hplip in HP Linux Imaging and Printing (HPLIP) 3.11.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted *FoomaticRIPCommandLine field in a .ppd file.

Notes

AuthorNote
mdeslaur
we don't ship this script in our hplip packages. hplip is built
with --disable-foomatic-rip-hplip-install.
hardy's foomatic-filters package does have this script though.
