While playing around with CDE on the HP-UX workstations at my university i
recently discovered a oddity. In the CDE printer mangager I discovered
that I, using my normal student login, could delete print jobs from the
print que. Including those that weren't mine. Although this doesnt seem
like a severe security risk, im sure other users wouldnt be too happy to
know that someone could easily delete their print jobs.
