+Subject: [PATCH] scheduler/cert.c: Fix string comparison (fixes
+ CVE-2022-26691)
+
+The previous algorithm didn't expect the strings can have a different
+length, so one string can be a substring of the other and such substring
+was reported as equal to the longer string.
+
+CVE: CVE-2022-26691
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups/commit/de4f8c196106033e4c372dce3e91b9d42b0b9444]
