This means that there is a security flaw outstanding with the print/cups-ba=
se
package. It could potentially be exploited by an attacker to run arbitrary
code on your print server.=20
The warning is being emitted by the following line in the print/cups-base=
=20
Makefile:
FORBIDDEN=3D remote execution of arbitrary code
The fix would be to find the vulnerability and patch it, or failing that,
contact the maintainer and see what he says. As a workaround, if you don't
care about the vulnerability, you can set NO_IGNORE in the make environment
and try again. ports(7) has more detail.
