Based on the cups-filters changelog I suspect this was unintentional fallout, so I'm gonna wait to see if Ubuntu themselves address the issue instead of us.

cups-filters (1.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
   - foomatic-rip: SECURITY FIX: Also consider the semicolon (';') as an
     illegal shell escape character. Thanks to Adam Chester for the hint
     (CVE-2015-8560, Closes: #807930)
   - Added support for Braille embossing via CUPS

  [ Till Kamppeter ]
  * Changes for the upstream addition of the Braille embosser drivers
  * Moved the implicitclass backend from the cups-filters into the cups-browsed
    binary package as it is used by cups-browsed (and so already needed by a
    level-1 printing stack)
  * Added dependencies on imagemagick (>= 6.4~), liblouisutdml-bin, and
    poppler-utils to cups-filters, as they are needed to convert images, text,
    and PDF to Braille, added antiword and docx2txt to Suggests: as they allow
    converting Word files to Braille
