Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2003-0136 is a local file-overwrite issue in psbanner from the LPRng printing package. A local user could abuse temporary file handling around /tmp/before with a symbolic link. Business urgency is mainly for legacy Unix/Linux print servers or systems still carrying old LPRng packages. Exposure is most likely on legacy systems running LPRng with psbanner installed. The source bundle does not identify affected versions or distributions beyond Debian and Red Hat advisory references. Prioritize this for legacy print infrastructure and multi-user Unix/Linux hosts. It is not presented as internet-exploitable, but arbitrary file overwrite by local users can create operational and privilege-risk concerns. Mitigation focus: Check Debian DSA-285 and Red Hat RHSA-2003:142 for applicable LPRng updates.; Upgrade or remove vulnerable LPRng packages where vendor guidance applies.; Retire legacy print services that are no longer needed..
