On 4 machines here is USB for safety disabled, an HP DeskJet 500 is attatched to one machine attached via LTP (IEEE 1284) and the other machines use the network share... - all working well.
But every time i open up CUPS for configuration or something the process
/usr/sbin/cupsd
crashes and an crash report is generated (attached).

[IMPACT]
If on a machine (mainly servers and high-security environments) the USB is turned off in the BIOS or a very old pre-USB-era machine is used the attempt of CUPS to detect available printers makes the USB CUPS backend being called and the backend crashes then due to absense of USB . The crash itself is harmless, but it makes Apport popping up with a crash report which is annoying.
[TESTCASE]
Turn off the USB support completely in the BIOS setup of the machine, boot and run either
lpinfo -v
or
sudo /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
A crash report will pop up. Close it, do not generate the actual bug report.
After installing the proposed package the backend will not crash any more and so no Apport pop-up will occur.
[Regression Potential]
The patch is very simple and adds only an error check to handle an error on initializing libusb properly. The probability of a regression caused by this is practically zero.
NOTE: As the archives for the new development cycle are not open yet I am posting this SRU proposal without a fixed package in the new development branch. The fix is committed to Debian's GIT repo of CUPS though and so it will appear in the new development cycle with the first sync of the cups package. |
