Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cupsys

Cups daemon went mad and started writing 0x00 to its access_log until
disk got full. It stopped it after restarting the daemon. Will see if it
does it again.

I wonder whether the log file sizes should be limited so this kind of
things don't get happen accidentally by mad daemons? :)

Oh, the distro is Edgy with latest updates applied.
