+    The Hewlett-Packard Linux Imaging and Printing system (HPLIP) provides
+    drivers for HP's inkjet and laser printers, scanners and fax machines.
+    It integrates with the Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) and Scanner
+    Access Now Easy (SANE).

+    <p>
+    Kees Cook from the Ubuntu Security team discovered that the hpssd
+    daemon does not correctly validate user supplied data before passing it
+    to a "popen3()" call.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker may be able to exploit this vulnerability by sending a
+    specially crafted request to the hpssd daemon to execute arbitrary
+    commands with the privileges of the user running hpssd, usually root.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All HPLIP users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "net-print/hplip"</code>
