Temporary remediation
While we prepare updates for the different Debian releases, this is a list of actions that remediate the exposure to the vulnerabilities:
Remove cups from BrowseRemoteProtocols in /etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf or disable cups-browsed if possible
Block any incoming traffic to the 631 UDP portThanks to the Debian Security Team for their collaboration on addressing these issues!

You may be aware of the OpenPrinting CUPS vulnerabilities disclosed yesterday by Simone Margaritelli.
Unfortunately, this disclosure happened without the planned coordination between the reporter, the developers and the different distributions, without waiting for proper and tested patches to be available. As a result, vulnerable machines are currently exposed.
The Debian LTS team is working on preparing updates for the different Debian releases
