Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for libcupsfilters.

CVE-2024-47076[0]:
| CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and
| `libcupsfilters` contains the code of the filters of the former
| `cups-filters` package as library functions to be used for the data
| format conversion tasks needed in Printer Applications. The
| `cfGetPrinterAttributes5` function in `libcupsfilters` does not
| sanitize IPP attributes returned from an IPP server. When these IPP
| attributes are used, for instance, to generate a PPD file, this can
| lead to attacker controlled data to be provided to the rest of the
| CUPS system.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
