12.10 Lexmark S605 insecure permissions error












1















The S605 printer from lexmark is found and there is a provided option for the S600 Series when installing it. However, after the installation process it says it needs the program /usr/lib/cups/filter//usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter.



Now i know, that the downloadable packages from lexmark contain this file in a debian package, so i could use it from there, but: What does the structure above mean? ...//usr/local/...



Are these two different locations? And has the file to be in both?



Thanks in advance, it's impressive how you guys actually know what you're doing (in contrary to mac or most windows users.)



Update: After installinge the packages from lexmark (which are for 12.04) it says at printer state: idle .../printfilter has insecure permissions (0100775/uid=0/gid=0).



Can i modify the printfilter? Do i need to set up an administrative group? I read a guide somewhere, but didn't follow it for some reason i forgot.

I don't believe /usr/lib/cups/filter//usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter is intended as one directory - /usr/lib/cups/filter/ typically has no subdirs.



But apparently you managed to install the desired package and now you're getting the new insecure permissions error. I'm assuming this message gives the directory as /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter below.



What you need to do is change the ownership of /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter:



$ sudo chown -R root /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter


Changing the group shouldn't be neccessary but if you want to be on the safe side, also do



    $ sudo chgrp -R root /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter


However, you do need to have root as the owner of /usr/lib/cups/filter/, if it isn't, do the same for that directory:



$ sudo chown -R root /usr/lib/cups/filter/


...and when you're done with changeing the permissions, do a reboot or:



$ sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart

    /usr/lib/cups/filter//usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter




    This should be 1 directory. The double // is evaluated as 1 / so it does nothing. It is probably to prevent inside the software that this dir is evaluated: /usr/lib/cups/filterusr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter. That would result in an unwanted error.




    Permissions error




    sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin
    sudo chgrp root /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter


    should do it (though the 2nd line might not be needed!). Probable reason for the error:



    CUPS 1.5.0 has a new security policy for filters and backends not allowing group write permissions. See http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.5/whatsnew.html



    Scheduler

    4. Filter security; Filters and backends must now have group
    write permissions disabled.


    The package you used to install is probably from before this CUPS update.

      I just want to add that Rinzwind's answer about Cups ("CUPS 1.5.0 has a new security policy for filters and backends not allowing group write permissions.") was the key for me (I wanted to add a comment below his answer but I am new, so I couldn't do this). I had also been stuck with that insecure filter message and I was about to give up.



      In case this helps anyone, my set up is: Linux Lite 3.8 (the last 32-bit version available), running on a cheap Chinese Grefu laptop, and the printer is a Ricoh SP112su.



      I used the printer package kindly shared on Github for the Ricoh SP100 series, followed the Install instructions, but I was then bumping again and again into that "insecure filter" message until I found Rinzwind's answer on this thread. Both the test page and one pdf file were now printed OK. Thank you so much for the community!!

      • Download and install Lexmark drivers and utilities Launch the lexmark

      • printer utility and follow the instructions to install your printer


      • sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter sudo chgrp bin


      • /usr/local/lexmark/v3/bin/printfilter In the printer properties ->
        system preferences, enable remote administration

                      I just want to add that Rinzwind's answer about Cups ("CUPS 1.5.0 has a new security policy for filters and backends not allowing group write permissions.") was the key for me (I wanted to add a comment below his answer but I am new, so I couldn't do this). I had also been stuck with that insecure filter message and I was about to give up.



                      In case this helps anyone, my set up is: Linux Lite 3.8 (the last 32-bit version available), running on a cheap Chinese Grefu laptop, and the printer is a Ricoh SP112su.



                      I used the printer package kindly shared on Github for the Ricoh SP100 series, followed the Install instructions, but I was then bumping again and again into that "insecure filter" message until I found Rinzwind's answer on this thread. Both the test page and one pdf file were now printed OK. Thank you so much for the community!!
