Even then a re-install makes no sense. Stop/uninstall the CUPS browserd
and be done with it.

And it does not match what you quoted: They said there is no working work-
around yet! And with the guess you made it could be CUPS browserd, there
would be a working work-around.

Again: Guessing does not really help regarding security issues. That is my
take on it. Harden your systems and when there is still something coming
up that affects you see whether you can find something that is clearly
actionable.

If you want something that helps in (almost?) all cases: Shutdown all your
Linux machines or disconnect all your Linux machines from the network
completely.
