MDVSA-2015:196: cups-filters

Updated cups-filters package fixes security vulnerability:

cups-browsed in cups-filters before 1.0.66 contained a bug in the
remove_bad_chars() function, where it failed to reliably filter
out illegal characters if there were two or more subsequent illegal
characters, allowing execution of arbitrary commands with the rights
of the lp user, using forged print service announcements on DNS-SD
servers (CVE-2015-2265).
